“Daisy Jones & The Six” Includes A Subtle Easter Egg Honoring Riley Keough’s Grandfather, Elvis Presley, That You Might’ve Missed
? There are some spoilers ahead for Daisy Jones & The Six! ?
Daisy Jones & the Six has finally started streaming on Prime Video, and truly, I’ve thought about nothing else for days.
Lacey Terrell / Prime VideoBacked by the songs from the band’s famous album Aurora, Daisy Jones & the Six takes a look at the rise, fall, and price of fame.
Since the show began last Friday, Daisy Jones & the Six have gone from a fictional band from a book to a fictional band that has topped the real charts. Aurora hit No. 1 on iTunes during its first weekend and is currently the No. 1 selling vinyl on Amazon.
Lacey Terrell / Prime VideoIt’s also the first fictional band to top the iTunes charts.
In the first three episodes, we see the beginnings of the Six and Daisy Jones, and how they started their separate careers before coming together after Daisy and Billy record their hit single “Honeycomb.”
Prime VideoIn particular, in Episode 2, as the Six try to make it big while playing shows along the Sunset Strip and embark on their first tour, Daisy is gaining the confidence to sing in front of people with the help of her best friend Simone (Nabiyah Be).
Prime VideoThis leads to Daisy performing “Two Against Three” at the iconic Troubadour. It’s personally one of my favorite songs Riley sings as Daisy Jones in the series, and it really shows off her amazing voice, since it’s just her and a guitar.
Prime VideoNow, while Daisy is performing, if you look closely, you’ll see a patterned guitar strap that you might not even think too hard about the first time you watch the scene.
Prime VideoHowever, the guitar strap is the same one that Elvis Presley famously wore in his 1968 music special on NBC titled ’68 Comeback Special.

It’s a pretty recognizable piece if you’re a fan of Elvis or ’70s rock. Jimi Hendrix also wore this patterned guitar strap throughout his career, most notably during his legendary Woodstock set in 1969.
David Redfern / Redferns / Getty ImagesNow, while Daisy using the guitar strap is iconic in terms of rock ‘n’ roll history, it’s also a clever tribute to Riley’s family. In case you don’t know, Riley is the daughter of Lisa Marie Presley and is Elvis’s granddaughter.

“I do have a fun fact that Daisy’s guitar is my guitar,” Riley told BuzzFeed. “It was my personal guitar and I wanted to use it in the show.”
Prime VideoRiley has also talked a lot about how she’d never really sung or played guitar prior to filming Daisy Jones & the Six and that she learned for the role.
Alongside this Elvis Easter egg in Daisy Jones & the Six Episode 2, the series found other ways to subtly honor Riley’s family history during the course of the show.
Axelle / FilmMagic / Getty ImagesIn an interview with People, costume designer Denise Wingate revealed that while pulling together the wardrobe for the series, she came across Love Melody, a designer who “actually made two jumpsuits for Elvis Presley.”
Michael Ochs Archives / Getty ImagesSo, she had Love make “two beautiful, long coats for the show. One is a denim leather patchwork long coat and the other a beautiful rust leather.” Denise added, “I thought it was nice to bring that back in the fold and have a little bit of that history.”
Lacey Terrell / Prime VideoI’m a sucker for amazing Easter eggs and details in TV shows and movies, so I love all the attention to detail that went into creating the ’70s rock scene for Daisy Jones & the Six, including these subtle nods to Riley’s family.
