Australian born, LA based Pro Whistler Molly Lewis has released her sophomore EP, Mirage.
The new EP features her signature spaghetti western, film soundtrack, lounge vibes - showing off her amazing talent of whistling.
Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs said about Molly. I have never witnessed someone who can whistle like Molly can. It’s really extraordinary.”
She toured NZ with Neil and Liam Finn many years ago now - but more recently She has been in studio with Dr Dre
Charlotte Ryan spoke to her from her home on the hills in LA.
On Mirage LA-based, Australia-bred Lewis teams up again with producer Thomas Brenneck (Charles Bradley, Amy Winehouse) and brings Brazilian guitar virtuoso Rogê (Seu Jorge) into the fold.
The six capacious and atmospheric songs center Lewis’ unmistakable, cinematic whistle–akin to a mixture of a theremin and the voice of the great Peruvian soprano Yma Sumac—and reach beyond Lewis’s signature Spaghetti Western-meets-neo-lounge pastiche. Brenneck’s soul and Rogê’s pure Brazilian style contribute to form Lewis’s most concentrated effort to date, both sonically and conceptually.
