Los Angeles, CA-March 2, 2009—Award-winnings singer/songwriter Molly Jenson whose much-anticipated debut CD “Maybe Tomorrow” releases on March 3rd, has had a flurry of activity surrounding its release including being nominated for best pop artist at the Orange County Music Awards, having her song used in a major ad campaign for the clothing line Stitches, a stop at the Sundance Film Festival where she played before a sold out crowd, having her album named by the online rock publication Stereo Subversion as the "best album" of 2009 and a run-in with "Bono" the “lead singer” of U2 whose CD releases on the same day as Jenson’s.

Friends and industry leaders will join Jenson on March 3rd in Hollywood for a special party to celebrate the CD's launch, hosted by Bully! Pulpit Records, Nettwerk Music Group, Co-Exist and Risen Magazine. The event will include a special unveiling of the magazine's cover which features Jenson, by the magazine's editor Chris Ahrens and publisher Alan Camaisa and a special toast from famed publicist Michael Levine, founder of LCO-Levine Communications Office and editor of the LBN E-Lert. Jenson joins past artists featured on the cover of Risen including Paul McCartney, Billy Bob Thornton and Hillary Swank. The photos were taken by famed celebrity photographer Bill Zelman.

Jenson also recently met up with her “good friend” “Bono” in Beverly Hills to discuss the release of both of their CD’s on the same day. The two exchanged pleasantries but the conversation turned sour when “Bono” realized that Jenson’s album was also releasing on March 3rd. Jenson’s fans have spearheaded a campaign called “Make Molly #1” or MM1 to help their favorite artist best U2 in opening week sales and the news apparently hadn’t reached the Irish rock star.

“I have so much respect for Bono and U2,” Jenson maintains. “It was so good to see him again. At least I think it was Bono.”

Jenson was also recently featured in a major story in the Orange County Register. To read the article, visit here: www.OCRegister.com

Los Angeles, CA – Molly Jenson's debut CD, Maybe Tomorrow, is still a month away from release but is already garnering significant attention in various media. Her songs "Give It Time" and "Wait For You Here" were recently featured in the TV shows "Privileged" and "Knight Rider," the singer just landed the cover of Risen Magazine joining past featured cover artists like Paul McCartney, Ozzy Osbourne and Billy Bob Thornton, she recently performed three songs on the popular TV show Nightcap and her CD has been hailed by Stereosubversion.com as "the best album of 2009."

But Jenson's friends and supporters have even bigger plans in mind-having just launched an effort to bring their favorite artist's music to hundreds of thousands of new fans using several popular social networks in a campaign they've dubbed "Make Molly #1" or "MM1" for short.

Organizing a grass-roots campaign to recruit fans who will commit to buying her CD during its debut week of March 3rd, 2009, Jenson's fans hope for an opening week of sales that will break records for a new artist and make the Orange County, CA based singer a household name.

When she learned of the effort, Jenson posted a video at her Facebook site thanking members for their support. Other groups have formed at social networks like MySpace and other sites.

Jenson has already been a favorite on the net having been named by Teen Vogue magazine as one of the top 3 artists on MySpace, an honor that helped bring her to the attention of her label Bully! Pulpit Records which is releasing Jenson's debut CD in partnership with Nettwerk Music Group. Since going live, hundreds of people have registered at her site and received a free download of Jenson's first single "Give It Time," in exchange for committing to purchase the CD when it debuts on March 3rd.

"I'm realistic about these things, and somehow I don't think I'll be beating U2 the week our CD's release," laughed Jenson. "But it would be amazing to make a strong showing on the Billboard New Artist Chart. But whatever happens, it's every artist's dream to be supported like this by fans, so I'll be happy if I end up being the #1 artist named Molly, or the #1 artist from Fullerton, or the #1 artist who grew up in San Diego. I'll settle for #1 something!"

"The Obama campaign showed us the power of social networks and has changed politics as we know it," noted Mark Joseph of Bully! Pulpit who first spotted Jenson and signed her to his label. "This is a way for fans and future fans to be a part of making history."
