Handsome Molly will take you on an acoustic journey through folk, country and blues originals and covers. This trio draws from a well of personal and third person experience. They present a combination of thoughtful, atmospheric songs and toe tapping tunes, through warm vocal harmonies and a sense of fun. The combination of cello, guitar and banjo drives an original and rich sound.
The band, based in the foothills of kunyani, nipaluna (Mt Wellington, Hobart, Tasmania) have performed at festivals such as The Cygnet Folk Festival and the Evandale Veranda Festival. You may have caught them at various venues around greater Hobart, including Willie Smiths, The Longley International and Mona.
Tony Waller is a singer songwriter, guitar, banjo and harp player, storyteller extraordinaire, and a man of many talents. Tony has been playing in bands since the dawn of time. He brings his love of the open road and wide-open spaces to his song writing with earthy vocals and a sense of mischief.
Singer songwriter and guitarist, Natalie Frohmader’s smouldering but powerful vocals and complex harmonies are steeped in the traditions of North American country, gospel and folk. Her voice will take you to heaven and back and her clean and crisp guitar playing lays down a strong foundation for the band.
Originally classically trained, Rachel Page loves to explore a variety of non-traditional styles on the cello. Her vocal harmonies weave seamlessly with Natalie’s as she adds her technical expertise plus expressive and sonorous cello sound to the band’s originals and covers.
Handsome Molly is available for festivals, venues, conferences and private functions.
Handsome Molly proudly support Inscape and choose to donate a percentage of their performance fee to ensure the continuation of Inscape’s work providing music and art experiences for patients in health care settings around Hobart.
