Molly McAnany wears many hats as the creator of our podcast, The Indy. Not only is she the host and editor — but she’s parlayed her background as a classically trained pianist into crafting theme music for the audio streamer. We asked her some questions about it below. 

The opening theme of The Indy podcast, composed by Molly McAnany.

Did you play all the instruments on the opening theme?

I play a few instruments. I play piano, guitar – I’m gonna include harmonica in there, because that’s fun. I’ve been working on my bass skills. And I’m actually learning right now to play the bagpipes. Because I’m very Irish. So my family’s like, someone needs to learn it.
