Miss Molly is a sultry mix of alternative, folk, rock, and jazz. The music moves you, makes you dance, and fills your ears with passion and deep musical theme. Lead by vocalist and rhythm guitar player, Molly Winters, her style is a strong vibrato with a range that can be low and warm as well as high and powerful. Lead guitarist, and back-up vocalist, Tom Winters, paints a colorful trancelike landscape with his electrifying guitar solos. Nathan Foli, on drums exudes precise, clean, and creative rhythms building a driving, grooving force throughout the music. Larry Cook, a graduate bass player is amazing on both the upright and electric bass, filling the tunes with jaw-dropping, innovative lines, irresistible melodies, and intense rhythms. The music is rocking, meaning full, interesting, grooving, and above all, passionate. The band is on the cutting edge of the Mid-west music scene with a style of music that is as hard to categorize as it is to stop listening to. The unique diversity of Miss Molly’s music makes it easy for the band to capture the hearts and ears of any music fan. The band has performed in many local Columbus venues such as the Lifestyles Community Pavilion, the Thirsty Ear, Skully's Music-Diner, Little Brothers, Oldfield’s On High and the Rumba Cafe.
The band's repertoire focuses on passionate, sultry, and dance inspiring mix of originals, as well as cover songs ranging from artists like Nancy Sinatra, Janis Joplin, and the Beatles to Hank Williams, Tom Petty, Nirvana, and Kathleen Edwards. Miss Molly is a young, fresh, and professional group of musicians that has performed for concerts, night clubs, weddings, festivals, private parties, and more, making this band as beautiful and flexible as the flowing branches of a willow tree.
