Publisher's Synopsis
Jeanette believes that all great rock bands revolve around a love story, and she knows that Sigma S Star's core love story isn't hers. She's not their best singer, nor their most celebrated songwriter, and she certainly isn't their prettiest face. She's the sort of competent supporting player a band needs, and as Sigma S Star chase their rivals The Moondreamers across the music charts of the early 2000s, she finds some comfort in her role.
Yet there's always a new crisis preventing Sigma from eclipsing the Moondreamers. Accidents. Illness. Infighting. Getting banned from Canada. Forget about peace, love, and rock-and-roll. BUTTERFLY ON A WHEEL is a saga of loyalty, lies, gender transformation, bad chemistry, and the perils of playacting a cultural archetype.
Sigma S Star's misadventures span from the San Francisco Bay Area to remote Northern Michigan to Hawaii, against a backdrop of upheaval from 9/11 to the Great Recession to the era of pandemic isolation. Come along for the ride... but watch out for careless drivers.
