The Mollys: Releases and Reviews

Group Shot The Mollys' latest album, "This Is My Round," is getting regular play on Irish, alternative and folk shows on college, NPR affiliates and community radio stations throughout the U.S. and Canada.

This is no "cryin' in me beer'' and "I miss me ma'' album. This is the soundtrack to which crowds at smoky pubs, big showcase clubs and festivals have stomped and roared.

"This Is My Round'' is available only, for the moment at least, by mail order for $15: The Mollys PO Box 43664, Tucson, AZ 85733

What the critics are saying about The Mollys! and "This Is My Round:"

Sing Out! (Nov.-Dec. '95/Jan. '96) says: "The Mollys are from Tucson and have clearly spent their time equally in cantinas and Irish pubs. If Shane MacGowan had been born female, lived in the Southwest and could sing to charm a rattler, the Pogues would be The Mollys."
Dirty Linen (Dec. '95 - Jan. '96) says: "As unlikely a mix as Tex-Mex Celtic sounds, this album proves the combination can work to great effect. Though there are a few mellow songs (like the lovely title cut), the primary focus of The Mollys is rockin', stomping, pass me a pint of stout (wrapped in a tortilla, please) tunes."
Mick Moloney: "I haven't been as excited about a recording since I first hear The Pogues years ago."
Eamonn McCann (Ireland's Hot Press): "what they play is Irish Tex-Mex and I promise you you've not heard the like."
Gene Armstrong (The Arizona Daily Star): "...energetic and rockin'...daring and powerful numbers by Nancy McCallion"
Dan Buckley (The Tucson Citizen): "Great music and blarney."
