About Me

Based out of Los Angeles, Molino began as the solo project of Abraham Rodriguez-Smith (La Fin Du Monde, Maw and Paw). Joined by friends Jason Payne (Nitzer Ebb, La Fin Du Monde), Suki Ewers (Opal, Mazzy Star) and Clifford Novey (The Youngs) for the recordings, the tracks come together to bridge the gap between psych rock stoniness and shoe gaze ambience, all wrapped up in a friendly package thats gonna smoke the world with the rock n roll...

With their line-up complete with Eddie O (Gruv Projekt, Produckt, La Fin Du Monde) filling in on drums, their self-released EP will be available August 2008 for downloads on itunes and as a cd for purchase. In the meantime select tracks are only available currently on myspace. Spread the luv...
