Jason Molina, the man responsible for musical projects such as Songs: Ohia and Magnolia Electric Co. has been missing in action for the past couple years and today Secretly Canadian posted the following message on their site in search of fan monetary support to help the singer with the significant medical bills he has accrued in the pursuit of getting healthy:
Many of you have inquired as to Jason’s whereabouts and well-being since he canceled his tours with Will Johnson in 2009. Over the last two years Jason has been in and out of rehab facilities and hospitals in England, Chicago, Indianapolis, and New Orleans. It has been a very trying time for Jason, his friends, and his family. Although no one can be sure what the future holds, we feel very encouraged by the recent steps Jason has taken on the road towards becoming healthy and productive once again. Unfortunately, because he has no medical insurance, he has accrued substantial medical bills. We are asking all friends of Jason’s music to come together with a showing of financial support for him.
Please consider a contribution to his medical fund (via Paypal). Feel free to forward this to any and all appropriate parties. We are hoping to raise whatever funds we possibly can for Jason. He is currently working on a farm in West Virginia raising goats and chickens for the next year or so, and is looking forward to making great music again. Please also show your support and well wishes by sending letters and postcards to:
Jason Molina
P.O. Box 423
Beaver, WV 25813If you do not wish to use Paypal, please make donations out to Ashley Lawson at the same address.
With our sincere thanks,
The Molina Family
We all certainly wish Jason the best on his road to recovery and hope that fans are able to aid him in this tough time.
