A genre-bending duo with roots in Austin’s vibrant music scene will bring an energetic and deeply expressive performance to the 76th Annual TorC Fiesta.
Tif & Mollie — singer-songwriter and “loop princess” Tiffany Christopher alongside cellist Mollie Fischer — are scheduled to take the main stage at the Bank of the Southwest (BOSW) parking lot on Friday, May 1 at 4 p.m. Known for their organic beats, rich harmonies, and playful improvisation, the pair promises a set designed to move both hearts and feet.
The two artists first crossed paths at an all-women’s music festival in 2022, where they performed together in multiple acts and quickly formed a musical bond. Within weeks, Christopher invited Fischer to join her on a Southwest tour, and the collaboration has since evolved into a dynamic live experience blending elements of folk, rock, hip-hop and Americana. Their chemistry on stage is often described as both powerful and fluid; “heavy like a mountain, yet as playful as the ocean,”- fueled by looping, multi-instrumentation, and a shared passion for improvisation.
Audiences can expect a lively mix of original songs and creatively reimagined covers, ranging from classical influences like Bach to bold, groove-driven originals. Christopher’s signature live looping and genre-crossing style pairs seamlessly with Fischer’s versatile cello work, creating a sound that is both intimate and expansive. With a knack for storytelling, humor, and audience connection, Tif & Mollie aim to turn every performance into an interactive experience. The duo is currently working on a full-length vinyl album featuring material from their recent tour along with new, unreleased tracks.
