Musician. Songwriter. Videographer.

 

Born and raised in Virginia, my musical roots run deep.  A mother who played piano at home and a father who minored in music, I was singing from an early age, playing piano by age 6 and guitar by age 12, composing my own songs soon after.

Several local bands later, I was fortunate enough to write and record two self-released albums (Stormy Words and Can't Be Wrong) each garnered glowing reviews in Billboard, citing “Mottley is a clever, catchy and ever-inventive songwriter who delivers originals that sparkle like sunlight on gemstones" and as having "a master craftsman's touch for melody and words that are unfailingly substantive and intriguing."

I continue to write, record and perform, having released a 3rd studio album "Best of Days" in 2016.  

I also work as a free-lance videographer for local non-profits, providing story-telling videos for amazing organizations in my home town.

“We should all look back to one day say ‘These are the Best of Days.’”

Currently, I work as a music director for country singer Tony Jackson, a music director for a local church, work as a freelance videographer and continue to write and perform locally around the Richmond, VA area.
