Artist description
Mollypop is a 20 year old junior at Washington College in Chestertown MD. She plays acoustic guitar, writes her own songs, and sings whenever and wherever possible.
Her originals range in subject matter from tragic obsession to abysmal failure to modern music's lack of originality. She is constantly pumping out new songs and is always looking for inspiration.
While she prefers to play originals at her shows, she mostly plays cover songs to keep the crowd happy and have some fun emulating her favourite artists. Popular groups she usually covers are Radiohead, Jewel, Britney Spears, Ben Harper, Ani Difranco, and U2. |

Artist History
While she has been singing since she was 7, performing in school choirs and the like, she has only been playing guitar since the age of 12. Since then, with a few lessons along the way, she has fine tuned her technique by listening to other musicians and goofing around a lot.
She had a brief stint in the group The Jack Handey Experience, and since then has strictly performed solo, with the brief cameo appearance on stage with such groups as Two Minutes and Dihybrid Cross.
Throughout the end of high school, when she started writing her own songs, she accepted offers to play at small shows, festivals at nearby churches or local music gatherings. Here is a list of some of the gigs she has had in the past few years.
- Timonium Presbyterian Church's Annaual Luaus/Coffeehouses(the past three years)
- Weekly Java Drop-Ins at Washington College
- Battle of the Bands at Washington College(won second place)
- The Vault Club in downtown Baltimore(past two years)
- Spaha Cafe in New York City
- Colleen's Naked Groovefest 4 in Frederick, MD
- University Baptist Churchs' Annual Strawberry Festival
