Molly Stone ‘The Softies’ - A Tender, Honest, Unapologetic EP

There is a particular courage in softness, and Molly Stone’s latest EP, The Softies, is a testament to that truth. Across four tracks, she pares down her sound to its most intimate elements, creating an atmosphere of delicacy that never sacrifices emotional depth. It’s a project that feels thoughtful, reflective, and meticulously crafted.

Written over several years, the EP collects Stone’s gentler songs into a cohesive set. Rather than following a single narrative, The Softies is unified by feeling — a sustained mood of introspection, tenderness, and subtle strength. Stone’s approach reveals an artist comfortable inhabiting space without the need for dramatic flourishes.

Tracks such as “Maybe I’m a Handful” and “Glitter” showcase her signature wit and honesty, tempered with melodic softness. Each song offers listeners a chance to experience Stone’s sharp observations from a quieter vantage point, where every lyric carries weight and every note is intentional.

“You Left So Suddenly” confronts grief with remarkable restraint. It’s a track that balances sorrow with composure, creating a moving portrait of loss that avoids melodrama and embraces subtle emotional complexity. Stone’s performance is intimate yet controlled, demonstrating her skill at shaping delicate stories in song.

The closing track, “I Just Wanna Give You Love”, featuring Nathan Thomas, brings warmth and human connection to the forefront. Its gentle instrumentation and collaborative energy provide a fitting conclusion to an EP that thrives on quiet emotional intelligence.

The Softies may be understated, but it is anything but minor. Molly Stone proves that subtlety and gentleness can resonate just as powerfully as bold, sweeping gestures. With this release, she solidifies her place as a songwriter whose quiet strength speaks volumes.
