Molly Summer didn`t run away with the circus, she ran away from it. Growing up in the little land Skåne, just outside Sweden in the south, Molly lived in a old cold house in the middle of where motorcycle gangs Bandidos and Hells Angels were based.
25 year old Molly has travelled all her life from the age of four with her parents circus. Living 7 months every year on the road in caravans.
Starting out performing at 4 years old. She became the youngest snake charmer of Sweden at the age of 8.
Molly ran away from the circus at the age of 14 to sneak under the seats of trains to go to all the great music festivals of Sweden and Denmark.
Her parents were not happy. But Molly was. And they could never stop her. Wild as a wolf, they could not even scratch the fur of her neck.
Molly has studied african dance, burlesque dance and modern dance and graduated from drama and dance school 2001, then said bye,bye to her familly of folks and four brothers.
Molly moved to Galway, working as Molly Clown at kids parties and sometimes juggling on the streets. Ireland became her favorite place and would bring her back year after year.
Molly jumped on a plane to Australia in Dec 2003, where she has been based since.
In 2004 she picked up the guitar and eventually harmonicas. She likes to write about dreaming stories(from a childs kind of view)about her travells, and about interesting people she meets on her way,about the circus life and about issues in life that pisses her of.
In june 2007 she went to Abu Dhabi in United Arabia Emirates where she performed her juggling for 8 different classes of school kids, going from classroom to classroom, at the Chouiefat School.
