All the Real Rockstars Who Inspired "Daisy Jones & The Six"

Teddy, the music executive who discovers the Six and shepherds them to fame, draws inspiration from some of the biggest names in music history. Actor Tom Wright, who plays Teddy, told Insider that he "attempted to channel" a trio of iconic music executives: Quincy Jones, Berry Gordy, and Al Bell. Wright also said he prepared for the role by reading a book by Jerry Wexler, former head of Atlantic Records and producer to Aretha Franklin.
