Molly Hocking is the super-talented winner of The Voice 2019, and her debut album is on the brink of breaking through. The lead single, ‘After the Night Before’, captures the heartache of love gone wrong, as Molly waits for a call that might never come. We’ve all been there, and the song perfectly conveys the pain and frustration of life slipping beyond our control.
The video creates a dark, moody atmosphere to match Molly’s lyrics — a world on pause, off-kilter, and perhaps even out of reach. Dramatic, shadowy sequences overlay image after image of Molly as thoughts of the night before replay in her mind. Will he call? The song leaves us wondering.
In the end, Molly has done all she can. She walks away, her unanswered questions still ringing beautifully in the air.
