Welcome to Café Molly—a lounge bar unlike any other. Picture this: low lights, ice-cold martinis, plush velvet banquettes, and the stage glowing with the magnetic presence of whistler Molly Lewis. Following her exotica-infused The Forgotten Edge EP and the tropicalia-inspired Mirage EP, Lewis captures the essence of Café Molly in her debut album, On the Lips, a dreamy homage to classic mood music.
This evocative collection conjures visions of misty Hollywood jazz clubs, Italian cinema soundtracks, and tender, lingering embraces. Recorded at Diamond West Studios in Pasadena with producer Thomas Brenneck of the Menahan Street Band, the sessions embraced an open-door policy, welcoming an impressive roster of acclaimed musicians. Collaborators include Nick Hakim, Latin Grammy–nominated Brazilian guitarist Rogê, Leland Whitty and Chester Hansen of BADBADNOTGOOD, Chicano soul group Thee Sacred Souls (featured on the poignant track “Crushed Velvet”), experimental jazz pianist Marco Benevento, and Leon Michels of El Michels Affair.
Lewis's intoxicating compositions and wry stage presence (she may not sing, but she can deliver a joke with panache) signal her ascent into the storied lore of the Los Angeles lounge scene—and beyond. So pull up a chair, order your favorite drink, and let yourself be captivated by On the Lips.
