Molly Lovette Has Me Saying Hey with “Hey Hey”

Listening to Molly Lovette’s new single “Hey Hey” made me reflect on how much this family and I have grown. There were opportunities I missed, fears faced, and goals achieved. These moments of growth pales in comparison to the relationships made. Being part of Molly Lovette’s musical journey has been a pleasure.  It was, however, a rocky start. When it came to that first interview, it was a struggle. I had to reschedule twice due to seizures, and when we finally had our first phone call, I was in a busy mall struggling to hear her story. Molly and her publicist Nicole should have given up on me at that point, but they didn’t. Fast forward to today, Molly and Nicole are two relationships I cherish.

When I first met Molly, I already had some interviews under my belt, but Molly was the first time I felt an artist had a strong enough foundation to make it to the top. A house of cards can be built fast and with ease, but one gust of wind will have it falling completely apart. There are many music artists made this way. Molly foundation is more like concrete. It takes a lot of work and time, but the finished product is solid. The slow process is worth the wait. Molly’s single “Hey Hey” is as solid as a song can be.

As a guy, fun and flirty are two words I hate to use together. That said, they sum up the overall them of Molly’s new single. Do you want to know something crazy? This time I don’t have a problem with it. I think this is one of the best damn songs yet to come out this year. Why the fanfare? This song is a complete package when it comes to country music.

“Hey Hey” has a complete and exciting storyline. As light as this song feels, the underlying sexual tension makes you want to follow the story to the end. Not only was this single fantastically written, but it also was produced just as well. On top of all of this, Molly adds just enough twang to fuse the contemporary and traditional country music elements together. Molly is proof that you can bring country music into the 21st century without having to destroy it. Molly set a high mark with “Hey Hey,” that I’m excited and scared at the same time.
