Molly Tuttle

On the heels of two Grammy-winning albums with her band Golden Highway and a Best New Artist nomination, Molly Tuttle returns with her most dazzling solo album yet: So Long Little Miss Sunshine. Produced by Jay Joyce, the LP finds Molly going to a whole new place, blending pop, country, rock, and flat-picking, plus one murder ballad and a surprising cover of Icona Pop and Charli XCX’s “I Love It.” Molly’s stunning guitar work is more up-front on this album than ever before. Tuttle spent five years quietly building the album while touring extensively and releasing music. “I’ve been wanting to make this record for such a long time,” she says. “Part of me was scared to do such a big departure... It’s like, ‘You know what? I’m just not going to care what people think. I’m going to do what I want.’” Known for pushing bluegrass boundaries, Tuttle leans fully into reinvention here. “I like to be a bit of a chameleon with my music,” she says. “Keep people guessing and keep it full of surprises.” Tuttle also conceived the album artwork, which features multiple Mollys, each wearing a different wig except for one with nothing on her head at all. (“I probably own as many wigs as I own guitars,” she says.) Bald since age three due to alopecia areata, Tuttle is a spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation. With So Long Little Miss Sunshine, Tuttle fully steps into her voice—fearless, unfiltered, and entirely her own.
