Description

For fans of heartfelt graphic novels and the kick-ass rock of We Are Lady Parts - packed with humour and strong female attitude as four Black teens demand their spotlight.

Jada has always dreamed of tearing up the outdated rulebook of the music industry, so when Clash of the Bands is announced, she grabs the chance to create Black Dolls:

Influencer Sassy on lead vocals

Silvee, shy but a killer bassist

Dana, guitarist and ex-child star with insider knowledge on the industry

And Jada, rhythm legend on drums and vocals

But with competing leads and rivalries, band life is continual drama. The Black Dolls battle overbearing families, identity questions, paternity tests, and media exploitation as they try to keep their dreams alive.

Can Black Dolls overcome their differences and take over the music industry? Or will they crash and burn before they skyrocket . . .
