Plot Synopsis

In this scripted sitcom, Austin, an extroverted musician/singer, and Ally, a brilliant yet shy songwriter, combine their talents in an attempt to create a true musical tour-de-force -- all while still being normal teenagers and hanging out with their two best friends, Trish and Dez. At first, unbeknownst to Ally, Austin and Dez "borrowed" one of her songs, recorded it, created a video and posted it on the Internet, after which it and Austin became overnight sensations. When Trish convinced Ally to tell the world she wrote the song, Austin pleaded with her to write another hit for him. And ever since, they've been chasing their musical dreams. In the comfort of Sonic Boom, her parents' music shop and center of her musical universe, Ally works on hit after hit for Austin, while Trish becomes Austin's manager and Dez takes on the role of music video director. Ally's original songs, which are performed by Austin, including "Double Take" and "Break Down the Walls," became chart toppers, and together the foursome learned to navigate the ups and downs of fame, friendship and being teenagers.
