hey there, i’m molly. around 8 years ago i picked up my mom’s guitar that was collecting dust in my childhood home and took my first strum. since then, i have gone from watching countless guitar tutorials on youtube, to playing in front of a handful of high schoolers in basements on friday nights, to now reaching over millions on social media with my guitar playing and musical crafts. to sum it up, i’ve been on an absurdly beautiful adventure since i began sharing my music with the world outside my bedroom.

i’ve been writing original music for a while now, and i still don’t know how to answer when someone asks where an idea i wrote came from. expressing myself through art mediums like visual art, photography and music have always felt natural to me, even when i didn’t yet know a single chord on the guitar. that day i picked up my mom’s 70’s Ovation acoustic was the first time i observed myself beginning to unlock something that had been hibernating within my core for a while. something that had been resting since my swim career of over a decade came to an end - snoozing since my 14 year long dream of soccer stardom came to a close. my lost dreams were accompanied on their departure by that silent, sleepy thing.

that thing was passion.

when i picked up that guitar years ago, the lock on that box began to disintegrate. i’m no good at picking locks, but if i have a lil box full of passion inside myself that i was able to unlock, i’m almost 110% certain others out there can do the same. and that’s a message that’s really important to me that i thought i’d leave here.

alrighty well, i’m signing off for now. but alas, have no fear, i shall return. consider this a first day of school all about me presentation that got cut off early by that end of day bell. take it easy my friends.

sincerely,

mollo <3
