Known for her atmospheric arrangements layering guitar, voice, and looped harmonies into immersive soundscapes, Molly brings a depth of artistry perfectly suited for a close-listening environment. Each night of the residency will present a unique and evolving musical experience. Molly will craft new setlists, play songs from her new record Interwoven (released May 2025), and preview new material. This residency is a space to bring people together during the quietest season of the year. More than a concert series, this residency is a winter gathering place: a warm space to connect & listen. Laurels String Quartet Bio: After a chance meeting over a decade ago, The Laurels String Quartet fell into being and quickly became a staple of the Minneapolis music scene. Their enveloping blend and collective instinct for tuning into the emotional frequency of a song has amassed the group collaborators near and far. Artists such as Belle & Sebastian, Father John Misty, Lucius, Jeremy Messersmith, Macklemore, Dan Wilson, Jason Mraz, Rogue Valley, Motion City Soundtrack, The New Standards, Ondara, and Semisonic have sought their company on stage and in the studio. Having an ease for adapting to different musical and interpersonal contexts, LSQ sets the tone for creative trust. The quartet has appeared on “Late Night with David Letterman”, PBS, The Current, NPR and has performed on stages across the country from the celebrated outdoor festival “Rock The Garden” at The Walker Art Center, to the Barclays Center arena in Brooklyn NY, to the legendary First Avenue in Minneapolis and everything in between.
