Shiori Honda is a high school English teacher whose dream of being a guitarist died when her brother fled home, leaving the family with his 20 million yen debt. A decade later, on her 27th birthday, she is haunted by the spirit of Jimi Hendrix, one of the most famous members of the 27 Club. He delivers an ultimatum: become a musical legend in a year, or die. Guided by her ghostly mentor, Shiori must now assemble a band and make her name.
