Trying to remember a fic...

[Bob Schroeck]

Can anyone help me with recalling a fic please? I was reading it last year, mostly during the summer, I guess, but I've since lost track of it and I only now remembered how much I was enjoying it.
Harry Potter story. After "Order of the Phoenix" Harry inherits all the Black property, including a large manor house on the coast (in Scotland?), near which is a small cottage which is Sirius' old seventies-style "bachelor pad", and which is warded against wizards seeing it. Harry spends time there, meets a waitress in a local restaurant who turns out to be a famous young classical musician who also also moonlights (against the wishes of her record company) as a rock-n-roller. The waitress also turns out to be Sirius' illegitimate daughter, whom he didn't know existed, and an untrained witch.

I seem to remember that too... I think I can narrow down your search to fanficauthors.net Can't recall the specific title, but I think it was one of those stories.

Found it. Personally, it's not all that great, but...

Thanks! No update since September, which explains why I haven't read any of it recently, and it's on FFA.net, which explains why I didn't bookmark it individually. I'll try not to forget it this time.
