With handsome femininity, Mol Sullivan’s music swoons feathery and punches low. Her songs- each a poetic exposé of messy and brilliant humanity- range from bedroom-pop lullabies to alt-country rock tunes, drenched in vinegary twang. In 2023, she released her first swirling and luscious EP,
A Little Hello, on Ruination Record Co.
Her debut studio LP,
GOOSE, (prod. Sima Cunningham [Finom fka Ohmme]) was unveiled in early 2024 to appropriate acclaim. Her work has been featured on Bandcamp’s Essential Releases, KCRW’s Top Tune of the Day, and spent six weeks on the NACC Top 200 Chart (peaking at #22). This year, Sullivan spent several months on the road as the newest member of WHY? and contributed to their latest album,
The Well I Fell Into (2024).
If you’re in the market for some fresh music to drum up nostalgia for 90s Top 40 Americana-pop, you’re in luck. Sullivan is charming, witty, and wildly personal- a bowl of milk, deserving every single lap of a parched tabby’s tongue.
