Wildcard (week 42):
Moli – Aftermath
![]()
Moli is a Belgian/British artist, who is working from Berlin, Germany. As a writer of hits for others, Moli goes by her real name, Molly Irvine. She (co-)wrote many critically-acclaimed pop and dance hits, like Breaking Me by Topic & A7S, which won her a BMI Pop Award. She also worked with Lost Frequencies, Zoe Wees, Alvaro Soler, Jonas Blue & Felix Jaehn, and Ilse DeLange, to name but a few – very different – acts.
Following the release of her first solo single Didn’t Mean To in 2018, it was clear straight away that Moli was set for a career as both an artist and a songwriter. She isn’t the most prolific of artists, but by her standards it’s all about quality, not quantity.
Aftermath is her new single. A melancholic song with timeless class. She describes it as ‘a 4 mins not very tiktokable song that’s exposing just how much of a hopeless romantic I am and the ugly sides to heartbreak’.
Aftermath by Moli is the new Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. It will be prominently displayed at the top of the blog for an entire week.
