Early Years

John Molo Drummerszone artists John Molo

John Molo is the product of immigrants - he counts three grandparents who came to the United States from Ireland and one from the border of Switzerland and Austria which is where his surname comes from. Molo grew up and lived in Washington, D.C. but his oceanographer father became increasingly concerned about the safety of the inner city and moved the family to the suburbs of Langley, Virginia where he went to high school at Langley High School in McLean, Virginia.
