Bukowski's Broken Family Band

Jo Connors has just been recruited by Jaymie Brzezinski, an eccentric rock musician who claims to have been born at the moment of the writer Charles Bukowski's death. It's autumn of 2019, and the mad reincarnated poet is assembling an indie band made up of his panic-prone twin brother, coolheaded younger sibling, and Jo-a formidable but perpetually stoned guitar goddess. They have only just arrived at their first show when a supernatural murder shocks the band, causing them to question whether being part of the local scene is worth the peril.In between confronting a monstrous killer, spending a stint in a demonic "arts collective" (cult), and navigating a calamitous clone misunderstanding, the four bandmates encounter real-life struggles, including anxiety disorders, gender identity exploration, inequality in the music scene, low-quality pet therapy, and finding belonging on the road amidst the weird.
