Music is medicine, apply liberally!  Molly’s soulfully rich voice greets you with open arms and a nod of recognition: we’re in this together. With ukulele in hand, she offers music that speaks to the dynamism of our human experience. Joy, grief, family, violence, love, patriarchy; nothing is off limits.  With power, humility, and integrity, she sings with a vision toward healing the wounds of our world.

Molly came to music later in life. But her love of words and melody were always with her, a secret dream too precious to speak. But - to quote Anais Nin - "the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” And so, she finally let her petals unfurl.  

She created and lead the Bay Area’s feminist-driven 9 Lives Music Collective.  She lead the minimalist folk band Tooth and Talon, and then the jazz-dipped Molly James Band.  She read her poems and shared her story.  And now, she prepares to bring a much nurtured dream to light, as she embarks on her first solo tour!  Check out the dates and come on by, summer is the season to witness her bloom in full shine!
