Rennie Starr is a mechanic at a Cadillac dealership, a skill he learned from his father. One night he gets a chance to sing with a band at a club in his home town in Southern California. A long-time church choir member, he has a fine baritone voice. The band plays the classic pop tunes from the 1930s and 40’s and 50’s, his father’s favorites, which he knows well. Before long he is a popular local singer, and soon he starts attracting attention from all over Southern California. He is especially popular with the females in the audience, both for his smooth baritone and his handsome appearance. Romance seems possible, but will it be real, or just a temporary fling? When he gets invited to appear in Nashville with a popular female country singer, his career seems ready to take off. When other options appear, he has to make choices. He discovers that there is a price to pay for fame, and he wonders whether he is willing to pay it. He soon finds that stardom can be a lonely place in which to dwell even at the top.
