MOLLY TUTTLE is a Grammy-winning singer, songwriter and virtuosic guitarist whose innovative blend of bluegrass, Americana, pop and rock has made her one of the most dynamic artists in modern roots music. In 2025, she released her boldest statement yet, the critically acclaimed So Long Little Miss Sunshine, nominated for two GRAMMY® Awards—Best Americana Album and Best Americana Performance for the lead single “That’s Gonna Leave A Mark.” Recorded in Nashville with producer Mike Joyce (Orville Peck, Miranda Lambert, Lainey Wilson), the album marks Tuttle’s fifth full-length release and her most ambitious reinvention to date: a vibrant, deeply personal body of work rooted in self-acceptance and transformation.
Tuttle’s career, which began at age fifteen, has charted a course between honoring bluegrass and stretching its boundaries. On this album—a hybrid of pop, country, rock and flat-picking, plus one murder ballad—she goes to a whole new place. Her stunning guitar work is more up-front on this album than ever before. (One of the most decorated female guitarist alive, Tuttle was the first woman to win the prestigious International Bluegrass Music Award’s Guitar Player of the Year in 2017, at age 24, and won again the following year, with nominations nearly every year since; she has also won Americana Music Association’s Instrumentalist of the Year Award.) So Long Little Miss Sunshine also features Tuttle playing banjo, something she’s never done on one of her albums before.
“I like to be a bit of a chameleon with my music,” she says. “Keep people guessing and keep it full of surprises.”
Tuttle has been nominated for 5 GRAMMY Awards (including in the Best New Artist category) and earned back-to-back GRAMMY wins for Best Bluegrass Album with her band Golden Highway—Crooked Tree (2022) and City of Gold (2023)—becoming the first artist in the category’s history to do so. She is also the first woman to receive the IBMA Guitar Player of the Year award, alongside multiple additional IBMA and Americana Music Awards.

Wood Flower’s combination of tight harmonies, driving banjo, soulful mandolin, ripping twin guitars all supported by a solid bass line are highlights that define this up-and-coming Bluegrass band. Their unique yet traditional approach to Bluegrass music was formed in the spring of 2022 between a music teacher and his former guitar student from ten years prior who had recently graduated from Berklee College of Music.
Only two weeks after Wood Flower’s first public performance they were honored to open for The Seldom Scene, and have since shared the stage with such greats as Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder, Wyatt Ellis and East Nash Grass.
They have entertained music fans at variety of festivals including Wind Gap Bluegrass Festival, Podunk Bluegrass Festival, Musikfest, Appalachian Fiddle & Bluegrass Association Festival, Basin Bluegrass Festival and at listening rooms such as Godfrey Daniels, Sellersville Theater and the Ardmore Music Hall.
Wood Flower's self-titled debut album includes ten tracks, seven of which are original material and was released in the fall of 2024.
