The Hidden Tribute to Elvis You May Have Missed in Daisy Jones & the Six

In the new adaptation of Daisy Jones & the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid, the role of Daisy Jones is played by Riley Keough, the granddaughter of Elvis Presley.

"My whole family are musicians, so I certainly have a lot of experience around musicians," she told Entertainment Weekly about playing a singer. "I dated a few musicians. I've grown up with a lot of that in my life. So, I'm very familiar with musicians, but I'm also very not familiar with singing or playing guitar. Like at all."

Eagle-eyed viewers noticed a hidden tribute to Riley's grandfather Elvis in episode two of Daisy Jones: When Daisy takes the stage with Simone (Nabiyah Be) to perform "Two Against Three," her guitar strap looks identical to the one Elvis used in his '68 Comeback Special. The comparison was first noted by Deena Dietrich on Twitter, who blogs about Elvis.

And, Keough's scene parter, Nabyiah Be, who plays Simone, also comes from a legendary music family: Her father is reggae star Jimmy Cliff, who shot to fame in The Harder They Come, a 1972 Jamaican film.

The guitar strap is a distinct pattern often called the the Hendrix Woodstock strap, because Jimi Hendrix used it to perform at Woodstock in 1969. When that strap was auctioned in 2008, it was described as follows (via Guitar World): "This patterned Ace guitar strap was used by Hendrix at Woodstock as well as the Hollywood Bowl in 1967 and other performances. The strap originally came from David Vega, lead guitarist of the San Francisco funk band, Graham Central Station. Vega had been given the guitar strap from a sound technician who worked at Woodstock."

The Ace guitar strap was clearly a popular choice in the late 60s and early 70s, so not only does it makes sense that Daisy Jones would use it in the fictional universe, it's also a sweet tribute to Keough's grandfather, and a nod to her musical history.
