Molly Drake

About the artist

Mary Lloyd (1916–1993), also known as Molly, was an accomplished poet and songwriter. She was the mother of famed folk artist Nick Drake. In 1934, she met Rodney Drake, and they were married in 1937. Molly gave birth to Nick in 1948. Her poetry is somewhat maudlin but beautiful. Her compositions for piano are marked by the same looping style that characterized her son Nick's guitar work. Her daughter Gabrielle asserts that her mother's work is unquestionably a strong influence on Nick's work.
