Producer/Composer Fred Mollin Shares Glimpse Behind The Studios Doors In New Book ‘Unplugged’

May 6, 2025/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Producer and composer Fred Mollin‘s new book Unplugged will be released on May 11.

With a career spanning decades, Mollin’s work producing iconic music and composing for film and TV makes him a natural storyteller. He has collaborated over the years with icons including Billy Joel, Jimmy Webb, Johnny Mathis, Kris Kristofferson, Linda Ronstadt and Michael McDonald. In his new book, he draws upon his wide variety of experiences, including producing the Dan Hill hit “Sometimes When We Touch” and composing for Beverly Hills, 90210, offering readers a unique glimpse behind the scenes of the entertainment industry. Mollin has produced albums for a wide range of artists, including Jimmy Webb, Johnny Mathis, Billy Ray Cyrus and America, as well as the Disney Lullaby Album series.

Unplugged delves into Mollin’s creative process, his collaborations with renowned artists, and his unique perspective on the evolution of music and entertainment. The memoir is a must-read for music enthusiasts and anyone intrigued by the inner workings of the industry, providing a journey through Mollin’s notable career.

“After a lifetime immersed in music across various roles and genres, I wanted to capture my journey with a memoir,” Molin tells MusicRow. “My book takes the reader behind studio doors, sharing stories of collaborations with remarkable artists and my experiences scoring film and television. It also offers an insider’s perspective on the music business and how to navigate it. My story is a great deal about passion and perseverance in the world of recorded music. I hope it inspires anyone considering a creative life.”
