Sobre IBD

The stories of managers and record companies who ripped bands off, are legendary. But what about those bands whose fiery arc to stardom fizzled out? Bands that, having got a single into the charts, failed to follow it up. What if the music had been more important than the money? The Why was just such a band. But there was something else. Not the lack of talent, nor the potential for hit singles. Something that was much darker and sinister, and it broke The Why up. Fifty years after they split up, lead guitarist in The Why, Dave Waters, attempts to get the band back together. One last shot at success. But a mystery concerning the death of their manager, Monty Schneider, fifty years before becomes an obsession. Was it just an accident? Or, was he murdered? And if he was, who in the band was the murderer? What was the secret that split up The Why?
