Molly Fletcher is a genre-blending violinist, composer, and recording artist.  Her unique career bridges live performance, studio recording, and touring, and has planted her as sought-after musician that continues to shape the industry through her versatile artistry.

She has worked with some of the industry’s most influential artists, including Halsey, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Lopez, Paul Simon, Doja Cat, Blu DeTiger, Lewis Capaldi, and Raye to name a few. She has toured internationally and played at iconic venues such as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Radio City Music Hall, the London Palladium, Red Rocks Amphitheater, and Broadway, and was recently a featured soloist for Andrea Bocelli’s Madison Square Garden 25th Anniversary concert. She has performed at summer festivals around the world including Ultra Music Festival with Tiesto & Clean Bandit, BST Hyde Park in London with Matteo Boccelli, Summer Sonic Festival in Japan, Cherry Blossom Festival in India, and recently performed with Clean Bandit in Abu Dhabi.

In addition to her live performance career, Molly is an in-demand recording artist, arranger, and contractor, with credits on chart-topping records including Clean Bandit’s “Drive,” Blu DeTiger’s “Blondes,” and Damien Escobar’s “Taboo,” which reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Smooth Jazz Chart. She has written and recorded string arrangements for artists such as Gashi and Darumas, and works closely with music directors to curate ensembles and arrangements that reflect the artist’s sound. Her work as a music contractor includes overseeing performances for live shows and television, and most recently she contracted and lead the string section for Raye’s performances on Saturday Night Live and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

Molly’s film and TV scoring work includes Amazon Prime productions, as well as the soundtracks of “Expats”, “Long Nights Short Mornings”, and “Robot and Frank”. She recently composed the original score for “I’m Fine”, which premiered at the Big Apple Film Festival in 2024. In addition to scoring and recording, she has appeared on-screen as a performer in the feature film “Marry Me”, starring Jennifer Lopez. As an orchestral musician, she has performed as a soloist with The Chelsea Symphony and as a section player with the Radio City Rockettes Christmas Spectacular, Orchestra of St. Luke’s, One World Symphony, The Knights, Brooklyn Orchestra, Ars Viva Chamber Orchestra, and Time for Three.

Beyond music, Molly’s work extends into fashion and media, with performances at New York Fashion Week and editorials in Vogue Italia, Teen Vogue, Cosmopolitan Russia, Allure, Marie Claire, and Ebony Magazine. She was also featured in Maybelline’s “Make It Happen” campaign alongside Adriana Lima.

Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, she graduated magna cum laude from New York University with dual degrees in Music Performance and Psychology. Her classical training includes studies with Emmanuel Borok, Jan Mark Sloman, Anton Miller, Paul Landefeld, and David Updegraff, with additional training from faculty at Juilliard, Manhattan School of Music, Cleveland Institute of Music, Rice University, and the Curtis Institute of Music. Molly enjoys teaching and music outreach initiatives, and has taught violin to students of all ages in the New York City school system and her hometown of Dallas.
