LiftCountry of origin:U.S. Type of music generally:Alternative pop/rock Status:Final release, September ep (1999) See also:Molly Bancroft's site Comparisons:The strong, early (Solace-era) side of Sarah McLachlan, Devils Wielding Scimitars, Eve's Plum Covers/own material:Own General comments:Molly Bancroft has a strong voice and her songwriting is equally powerful. I gather their first two releases were a little less rocking than their final release, September ep. (sophiagurley@hotmail.com) Recommended first album:September ep is the only one we've heard Recordings:
September epRelease info:1999—Orangestar Records—)SR0001 Availability:Wide in U.S. Ecto priority:Recommended for fans of pop/rock Group members:Molly Bancroft—vocals, guitar Produced by:Molly Bancroft, Simone Simonton and Murray Attaway Comments:The songwriting here is way above pop/rock average. The songs are mostly on the shimmery rock side, though the verse of "Let It Out" is softer and crazy haunting—it has stuck in my head for years. It's too bad this band didn't continue down this path a while to see what happened. This has a ton of promise. (sophiagurley@hotmail.com) Thanks to Sophia Gurley for work on this entry.
