BIO

With authentic and relatable lyrics coming from real life experiences and a passion for her artistry that goes unmatched, Molly Lovette is making her presence known in the country music world. Known for her engaging live performances, bedazzled guitars, and DIY wardrobe, this vibrant country artist is winning the hearts of country listeners everywhere. 

Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, Molly and her two siblings grew up in a very close-knit family. Deep rooted in tradition and faith, Molly attended Catholic grade school and then an all-girls Catholic High School – the same one that her grandmother, her mother, her five cousins, and her younger sister all attended. However, music was another tradition that the family passed along to their children as well. Molly’s mother was always playing music throughout the house when she was young, her grandmother was known to write music and sing to her, and her grandfather had his very own band. Molly’s dad definitely has some country roots as well that influenced her love for country music, in fact her parents took her to her first concert – Tim McGraw – at the tender age of 5, sparking Molly’s love for performing. She took piano lessons and was in every talent show from kindergarten on and remembers putting on small “concerts” for her family and babysitters from a young age. “My parents have told me that as a toddler, I would sit in front of the air vents and sing for hours so I could hear my voice echoing through the vents.”

Even though Molly was an avid music lover, sports also played a huge part in her upbringing. She grew up playing soccer, volleyball, softball, and her favorite - basketball. In middle school, Molly spent countless hours on the court, and dreamed of playing college basketball. Those dreams changed abruptly during her eighth-grade year after taking a fall in a game. After enduring weeks of pain and visiting doctors, Molly and her parents were told that she had a tumor inside of her right femur bone. A biopsy was done when the doctors went in for surgery and relief was brought to the entire family when the results showed that the tumor was benign, and the surgery to remove it was successful. While she was out due to her injury, music was all she had to pass the time. Her dad taught her simple chords on the guitar and after tons of practicing and sore fingers, Molly finally learned how to play a very slow version of Every Rose Has Its Thorn. This small victory lit a fire inside Molly that turned into learning and writing more and more songs on the guitar.  It was at this point she realized that even with her love of basketball, nothing compared to her love of music.

The summer before her freshman year of college at Murray State, Molly began writing and performing regularly in her hometown. By the time Christmas break rolled around, she returned home and played her first full band show, introducing the new songs she’d been writing. This moment was the turning point she needed in order for her music career to become her main focus. Over three hundred people came to support her and the venue made a record-breaking total that Thursday night which boosted Molly’s confidence in her music abilities. But, three weeks later she was back at Murray State sitting in class. “As the second semester continued, I remember sitting in class and all I wanted to do was play music. I would write down lyrics in my notebooks and sit in my room and play and write in between all my classes.” She started booking some gigs at school that all proved to be successful. Her confidence was at an all-time high. Then after watching a video clip of one of her favorite performers, Bon Jovi, she knew she couldn’t hold out on her dream any longer. “What stuck out to me the most in that video was that he said you can’t have a Plan B. Backup plans are for if something doesn’t work out.” This further enhanced her passion and drive for music. “It was then and there that I knew I had to take a break from school if I wanted to make music my career.”

After getting her chops gigging in and around the Midwest, Molly made the move to Nashville, TN in 2020 and hasn’t looked back. In just four years Molly has released 20 singles with over a million streams on Spotify alone, opened for country stars Dierks Bentley, Priscilla Block, and Kylie Morgan, and completed multiple tours thus far, establishing herself as "one to watch" in country music. As she continues to grow her fanbase, Molly connects deeply with her audience whether in person or via social media, sharing her music and experiences, and is actively building a community around her artistry that will last a lifetime.
