About Me

Molasses' music hearkens back to the days when our grand pappies were runnin' whiskey and Django Reinhardt was still alive and chain smoking. The trio's collective background ranges from pickin' on the back porch to high-falutin' musical institutions, giving them a unique, high-energy oldtimey sound. They're the band from the camptown jollies- they dance around like rubber dollies.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

Whoa!! We take it all back!

Whoops!  Just got word from the big man downstairs that he has a fairly large interest in the whole Pop Music/MTV thing. And, wouldn't you know it, video games are pretty much ol' Satin's bread and bu...

They told us not to say it.

All our lawyers and promoters and managers at the long, long table said not to. We ignored them. We say what we believe. We can take the heat.  We stormed out of the meeting and to the Emerald intervi...

We eat Pop Rocks for breakfast.

We just like the way they sound when you add the Pepsi. And the color they turn your tongue. And, contrary to the popular urban legend, they don't get you high, no matter how many you eat. Really t...

Well, we met ol’ Satan walkin’ down the lane.

He had a meeting with some Wal Mart execs to try to get a Sam's Club built down in hell. We were surprised, until he asked if we ever considered spending all of eternity in a box store. Of course, he...

two guys, a girl, and one hell of a good idea

though we already have a nearly universal appeal, this would put us over the top and set us somewhere around the status of mediocre or perhaps even above-average quality. we'll get one of these soon.

In desperate need of BEER HATS!

We need the good ones that hold cans or bottles. Molasses just can't use those cheesy bladder ones anymore. The second time one of those suckers busted all over Brandon's head we were like, "Okay,ma...
