Molly Martin

media release: When Molly came to us about a show at Slowpoke, we didn't think we could pull it off. Our fall dates were full and we get nervous about having two shows in the same weekend, even for a rising Nashville star. Then we listened to her music. It took about five seconds, and we knew we had to make this happen.

This is kick-ass indie rock to make you bang your head to hard hitting songs you'll be thinking about long after you go home. This is drag your ass off the couch and get the hell down to Slowpoke music to wake up your mind and shake your body. To bring some wildness to your Thursday night and remind you there are some things worth singing about.

Thoughtful, bold, and laying it on the line.

Can I get a hell yeah?

Here's what they have to say about themselves:

Molly Martin’s debut album Mary released January 2023 is cheeky indie rock reminiscent of early Smashing Pumpkins, Land of Talk, and the attitude of the Pretenders. It’s music that pretends not to care about your feelings but really does. It’s a spotlight on the honest truth of Molly’s experience before and after quitting drinking; an 8-song inquiry into self-discovery. Molly’s birth name is Mary, and each track feels like a different aspect of the intersection between a buttoned-up Mary and a buttoned-down Molly. Nowhere near sacred and naturally profane, Mary is a think piece on everything from self-hatred to sexual assault. Something is bound to resonate, and that’s the point.
