BIO/INFO "St. Paul Americana musician Molly Maher sounds like she's had her dose of wandering. Her guitar playing is rural and soulful. Breaking all convention, she plays guitar upside down and in different tunings. Elizabeth Cotton would be proud." -Eric Loama, musician "Her music is a window to the lonely world of a nomadic spirit, someone who has loved and lost at love, someone who has lived the existence of a vagabond dreamer... and then there's her voice, the apparent lovechild of Ricki Lee Jones and Bonnie Raitt." -Richard Thomas, Reader Weekly THE DISBELIEVERS Maher's backing band is made up of a stellar crew of musicians. It's a sweet blend of folk, bluesy, elecric-organfied and county-fried rock. Disbelievers include but are not limited to: Erik Koskinen, Brad Mattson, Lynda Crotty, Frankie Lee, Javier Trejo, Paul Bergen, Peter Sands, Steve Murry, Dave Dahl, Dave Downey, Tony Johnson, Brad Konkel, John Moline, Razz, Thomas Case, Hutch Hutchinsen, Brett Brdas, and Billy Hawn. "Molly Maher and her Disbelievers command the stage with their rootsy charm but it's their ability to perform haunting low-fi ballads and whip them into full blown rockin' epics that sets them apart from other artists." -James "Taco" Martin & Company
