Molly Durnin CD Release Party Set For Thursday at Davenport’s Redstone Room
Molly Durnin will perform at a special CD release party for her new disc, “It’s Fine,” at 8 p.m. Thursday at the Redstone Room, 129 N. Main St., Davenport.
Karl Beatty will open the show.
For the past 10 years, Durnin has worked as a full-time touring musician, but 2020’s Covid pandemic put a stop to that – as it’s decimated 
the careers of so many artists nationwide.
“It was the worst year of my life,” the 32-year-old Moliner said. “It left me completely confused, hopeless as to what to do in my life. For a lot of us musicians, it’s not just performing, it’s our life. It’s not a job, it’s a lifestyle. It was traumatizing.”
Durnin moved to the Q-C in 2017 from Charleston, S.C. She moved back to Charleston, S.C., after an April 15 sendoff show in her honor here in the Quad-Cities.
Durnin is an impassioned alternative singer/songwriter who emerged from the talented 518 music scene of Upstate New York. Her sultry, uninhibited vocals, percussive acoustic guitar style and sophisticated lyrics invariably excite and captivate audiences. Molly’s passionate devotion to her music and fans has driven her down the east coast with a nonstop show schedule.
Molly’s self-produced debut album Run received widespread acclaim after its release in June of 2012. The Times Union called the album “simply exquisite” and Fools Hill Music described it as “smart, sexy pop/rock in the post-modern style.”
