Most people can’t weather the storm that is the music industry. But Stevie Nicks isn't most people. She breaks onto the scene with musical and romantic partner, Lindsey Buckingham. They make beautiful music in and out of the recording studio, and make a life-altering move in 1974 when they join British rock group, Fleetwood Mac. Stevie’s on top of the world as she swaps out tiny gigs in coffee houses for massive concerts in sold-out stadiums. But then, there are legendary clashes within the band - which include her and Lindsay. After a messy breakup - and a string of diss tracks they fire off at each other - Stevie goes solo. And the “Edge of Seventeen” hitmaker proves that thunder really does only happen when it’s raining. And what rains down on her is the devastating loss of her best friend, and a decades-long battle with drugs, which almost kills her. But this ""Queen of Rock 'n Roll"" is still standing, and living her “dreams.”
