... and The Nearly Band

About Me

19/11/07
All of the EPs have sold out, I'm down to making CDRs again. Which makes me very happy. Now I need to find someone to record me for free, and to get 'The Loud Ones' (obvious working title!) out.
In other news, The Nearly Band is much closer to being a Really Band, even though various members are in full time musical employment, or changing their country of residence.
Also, people are occasionally paying me for gigs. This is BIG NEWS, but maybe I should have expected it a little sooner. Still, high time, no?

I HAVE AN EP!!!!! It's called 'The Quiet Ones', it's a limited run of 100 copies. It has 5 songs: Love Again, Colosseum, Modern Love, Goddess of the Rain, Whiskey Up & Down. You can buy it from Fopp Records on Tottenham Court Road, or from me at a gig, or I can post one out to you, drop me a message!
Also, there's a new song up (it has been for a while) from a recording session with Urchin Studios, let me know what you think!

I've put a new song up! So it seemed like time to re-write this profile bit. It was all a bit pretentious first time round - although at least free of the third person... I promise you now, there will be no third person from Kevin Molloy until he has someone else to write these things for him.

Damn it.
Anyway, I write songs: some of them humorous, others thoughtful, generally winsome. And wine-fuelled. I'm currently playing lots of acoustic nights in London, I have some favourites, you can see them in my top friends. Also in my top friends are lovely people I play music with from time to time, or other artists i grudgingly give their due respect, and have struck up competitive friendships with...
Hoping this finds you well, I leave this update until such a time as I re-read it to find it, once more, not up to my achingly high standards of prose writing... a skill that is ever waxing in my breast and channelled through my fingertips.
Love and kisses,
Kev x
