Announced via Bustle, Bagieu’s new work, California Dreamin', will chronicle the legacy of Cass Elliot, from her early years trying to break into the world of show business to her days with the folk rock group The Mamas and the Papas.  Though the band only lasted for three years, they released five studio albums.  Elliot herself released five solo albums after the group broke up, before her untimely death in 1974.

Bagieu’s previous work, also published by First Second was 2015’s Exquisite Corpse (see “Review: 'Exquisite Corpse' HC”).
