Molly O’Mahony has spent the past decade writing & performing with art-folk group Mongoose. The band have released two albums & two EPS. As a teenager living in Ballydehob, Molly performed in a jazz duo with guitarist Norman Collins. They played a regular spot at Ballydehob Jazz Festival for consecutive years.
She returned to her home place in West Cork at the beginning of 2020, & began work on her first solo collection of songs. She released two singles from the collection over the course of 2021. In November, she received an Arts Council Agility Award towards finishing the project. Her debut solo album is due for release in late 2022.
Remember To Be Brave: "The song came to me in March of 2020, just as the world was coming to a standstill as the reality of the Covid pandemic set in.
A tribute to self-forgiveness, the inherent good in humanity, and a reminder to be brave enough to shake off the shackles of shame and turn towards the light."
