Girl-rocker in love.

If you‰’ve ever strongly related an 80s montage of a teenage girl getting ready for a cute date, Molly Thomason is right for you. This 19-year-old Canadian has butterflies in her stomach and crushes on her mind. She‰’s sounds like a fizzy bottle of pop with a rock-and-roll twist for added flavor. While the song topics focus on feelings of fancy, the melodies provide a musical maturity not usually found in romantic pop songs, as well as a drumset and other percussion that make it impossible not to tap your toes to. With feel good songs like “I Like You‰” narrating the song of the album, Molly is the modern combination of Taylor Swift‰’s endless romances and Avril Lavigne‰’s heavy eyeliner.
