It's fact that is...
12th December at 12 minutes past midnight five musicians, oblivious to each others presence, were sat waiting for their take-out pizza. "Alan", shouted the member of serving staff as the five arose. Could these five individuals all be called Alan? Can you die of cancer at a car boot sale? The answer, of course, is yes!
Astounded by this coincidence, Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan and Alan formed an eternal bond, which can only be broken by ham. It wasn't long before they had formed a band, too, and chosen a moniker in fitting with their green & orange attire - Molloy was thus born.
Of course, the quirky five soon found out that being in a band and sharing the same name wasn't all going to be sunshine & roses. So, over a game of Scrabble, new high-scoring, yet succinct, identities were formed accordingly…Jez (19 points) guitar & vocals, Caz (14 points) vocals & guitars, Chaz (18 points) bass, Jacqz (32 points) synth & vocals, Toz (12 points) drums. "Alan now, just seems like some wild, crazy dream", purports Jez. "Alan? Alan who?", Chaz asks. "I won, I won!", declares Jacqz as Toz raises an eyebrow acknowledging a silent victory.
With their new names memorised, Molloy can now focus completely on their aim - to spurt forth music which will leave a sweet, yet salty, taste in your eye. And a bit in your hair.
