Featured Reviews
Rival LA - Samuel Aponte
“That considered, ‘Get Loose’ is most definitely one of the best albums I've heard all year, and on musicianship alone, Molly and the Band can take pride in the fact they carry on the flame of rock within them. For anyone who says "Good Rock & Roll is not being made anymore" I'm more than happy to say: Shut up, you're wrong.”
Grimy Goods - Steven Ward
“On ‘Get Loose,’ Hanmer struts with her smokey croon, shaking the dust from her hair to the cathartic grumble of woozy riffs and tumbling drum rolls. “Come on and get loose,” she invites with her droning wail — a sincere call to wake up to the priceless value on being alive, healthy, and able to lose yourself to the music.”
Vents Magazine - Jennifer Munoz
“Get Loose brims with unique moments…It is an invigorating release on every level for Molly Hanmer and the Midnight Tokers”
Earmilk - Chloe Robinson
“Molly Hanmer & the Midnight Tokers concoct a psychedelic bluesy rock sound dripping with soul and attitude on Get Loose. The gritty 10-track collection takes listeners on a thrilling journey with themes of spontaneity and freedom.”

Indie Pulse Music - Mindy McCall
“‘Sick of Me’ is a romping single from a band I didn’t know had it in them but, rest assured, I’ll never doubt them again. They have everything a dyed in the wool rock fan such as myself craves from their music and I hope they keep serving it up indefinitely."
Vents Magazine - Bethany Page
“If there is equal or better, then Get Loose is set to make waves bigger than they’ve ever known… [“Sick of Me”] holds your attention from the start and “speaks” to listeners on their level rather than indulging even a nano-second of pretense. This is straight 100 proof rock music, no chaser, and Molly Hanmer and the Midnight Tokers sound every bit as believable in this role as they did on their debut.”
New Noise - Keegan Williams
No Depression - Mindy McCall
“If you’re looking for sizzling summer blues with a touch of Americana and rock n’ roll harmonies, Molly Hanmer and the Midnight Tokers have you covered in their single ‘Fool’s Run,’ the first from their highly anticipated album Stuck in a Daydream.”
Too Much Love Magazine - John McCall
“Molly Hanmer’s new recording with The Midnight Tokers in tow solidifies her reputation as one of the best singers/interpreters working the indie scene today. Stuck in a Daydream features a dozen songs of superior skill and quality and never panders for listener’s attention. Instead, stylishness and gravitas combine with immense musicality to bring this release together and it easily rates as one of the most satisfying releases I’ve heard in 2018.”
NeuFutur - Kim Muncie
“Too often musicians working in the Americana vein will opt for glossy over authentic, but you don’t get any of that with Molly Hanmer. Her vocal and musical skills are unquestionable, but she also clearly pushes herself to dig as deep into a song as she can and isn’t afraid to put herself on the line.”
CV Independent - Matt King
“If you’ve got the no-blues blues, check out Molly Hanmer and the Midnight Tokers. Debut record Stuck in a Daydream covers all the bases of blues essentials.”
Monterey Weekly - Adam Joseph
“Los Angeles-based outfit Molly Hanmer & the Midnight Tokers’ November 2018 full-length debut Stuck in a Daydream is a tapestry of liquid acid-Americana depicting a velvet sea of folk, blues and good old rock and roll.”
Gashouse Radio - Sebastian Cole
“If you love Americana and blues with its own identity, you will find yourself revisiting this album on a regular basis without any measurable disappointment. It’s a real winner.”
Vents Magazine - Lori Reynolds
“Stuck in a Daydream jettisons Molly Hanmer out into the public eye, placing her gorgeous, unique rock n’ roll for all of the world to see. There’s not one bad song here and her and her band’s focus combining together so many different styles of music is immaculate.”
IndiePulse Music - Mindy McCall
“Hanmer doesn’t hesitate to draw you in and simply keep you there for the duration with everything from her great skills to her sense of humor being all she needs.”
No Depression - Mindy McCall
“Molly Hanmer is a premiere musician and then some, not only with a voice of gold, but is also an awesome songwriter with an exceptional band behind her, The Midnight Tokers, and you never know what to expect from their textured shadows.”
Mobangeles - Michael Rand
“Hanmer’s voice alone is worth the price of admission, with a melancholy sound that draws you and keeps you there for the whole song with some fantastic lyrics to top it off.”
TheMusic.reviews - Heather Savage
“…this is a far-ranging effort that feels thoroughly modern despite its pedigree and shows a cadre of stellar songwriting and playing talents working at or near the peak of their powers.”
