Molly Pitcher, the great accident of vocal chemistry, was created following a New York City open-mic in April of 2000. Solo artists Victoria Lavington and Rebekah Fischman each having sung their own song, approached the other with compliments. They thought they might "gig" together on occasion and provide small bits of vocal support to the other when needed. They arranged to meet at a dilapidated downtown rehearsal space on a Sunday afternoon to see if their voices blended. After singing one half line together from Paul Simon's "Kathy's Song" both realized they had stumbled upon something extraordinary. They have been singing and recording together ever since.

In July of 2001, one year after meeting, they released their first CD "Watching the Rain". Produced by "Molly Pitcher" and Wade Tonken "Watching the Rain" was included in Performing Songwriter Magazines' top twelve "Do it Yourself" albums for January/February of 2002. In the months that followed Molly Pitcher was among 32 finalists chosen from 600 applicants to perform at the Kerrville Folk Festivals "New Folk" contest established by Peter Yarrow in 1973. They were also invited to showcase at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and Songwriter Hall of Fame. They continue to write perform and record and are now hard at work on their sophomore effort "Made for Roses". The album which consists of live-performance favorites and new compositions is in production with Mike Visceglia (Suzanne Vega) and Rob Freidman at the helm. The album also features Jerry Morotta (Paul McCartney, Peter Gabriel, Indigo Girls) on drums and longtime friend Cheryl Prashker on percussion. It is expected to be released on Elizabeth Records in early 2005.

Much has been written about what makes Molly Pitcher's sound so unique. Their songs are "melodically sophisticated yet straightforward" writes Clay Steakly of Performing Songwriter. "Victoria Lavington and Rebekah Fischman play sweet swinging acoustic folk with metropolitan cool and a sensitivity to a well-turned, well-sung phrase". But what seems to thrill audiences the most (and keep them coming back for more) is the seemingly chemical connection of their voices. "Angelic", "Haunting", "Mesmerizing" are just a few of the attempts made to describe the blend. Though each voice stands well alone, combined they soar. It's a sound that can only be created by fate. Molly Pitcher will move audiences for a long as they Victoria and Rebekah choose to continue their journey together.
