Colby and Bev have a long-standing pact: graduate,
hit the road with Bev’s band, and then spend the
year wandering around Europe. But moments after
the tour kicks off, Bev makes a shocking announcement:
she’s abandoning their plans—and Colby—to
start college in the fall.
But the show must go on and The Disenchantments
weave through the Pacific Northwest, playing
in small towns and dingy venues, while roadie-
Colby struggles to deal with Bev’s already-growing
distance and the most important question of all:
