Paris, summer 2005. “Let’s write a pop song.” Surviving on a diet of John Hughes, John Waters and David Lynch movies, it’s in their tiny parisian appartment that Jez and Caz perfected the recipe for their dirty-minded angular-electro-pop-rock. Accompanied by Chaz and Toz, they chose a moniker in fitting with their green and orange attire: Molloy was thus born.
London, Summer 2007. Many pop songs later, the now Shoreditch-based Molloy released their first single, Tracy (Way Out Records), to critical acclaim and a digital mini album, This Is Fucking Brilliant (Kitty-Yo) which was Steve Lamacq’s album of the week on Radio 1. They have also been supported and played by radio djs Alex Zane and Cheeky Pete (XFM), Tom Robinson (BBC6) and Durr dj Jonjo.
Molloy have now finished recording their new EP, Thursday Electric, which will be released January 2009 on upcoming parisian label Silverstation Records and will be followed by a European tour.
They’ve toured all over London in their green and orange molloymobile and their bespoke live performance – live meaning no samples or backing tracks! - with toys, telephone, megaphone and all analogue equipment, has earned them this year’s INDY Award for “Best New Wave/Progressive Act” after being nominated by XFM-backed promoters Broccoli Music. They were also one of the few bands selected to perform at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival on the XFM/PRS stage and have been chosen to perform at The Canada Music Week in March 2009.
