Flogging Molly consists of Dave King (lead vocals, acoustic guitar, bodhran), Bridget Regan (violin, tin whistle, vocals), Dennis Casey (guitar, vocals), Matt Hensley (accordion, concertina, vocals), Nathen Maxwell (bass , vocals), Spencer Swain (mandolin, banjo, guitar, vocals) and Mike Alonso (drums, percussion).
Starting out as Molly Malone's house band in Los Angeles and building a loyal following through endless touring, Flogging Molly has become a staple of the punk scene over the past 20 years, beginning with their riotous debut album, Swagger, and continuing with their six additional studio albums.
Flogging Molly's most recent album, Anthem, arrived in September 2022 via Rise Records. The band reunited with legendary engineer Steve Albini (who worked with Flogging Molly on their first two albums, Strut and drunken lullabies). The band released four videos supporting Anthem, including the timely song and clip for “A Song of Liberty,” written by King as an account of a dark period in Irish history, but made even more relevant by events in Ukraine. The Mad Twins, Ukrainian animators and filmmakers, created the moving video.
On March 10, 2023, the band released a new three-song EP, 'Til The Anarchy's Restored EP (Rise Records), featuring the previously unreleased title track and one-take performances of the band's classic songs: “Drunken Lullabies” and “What Remains of the Flag.” Recent tours have taken Flogging Molly to historic venues including Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater and the band's annual Valentine's Day outing. Patricio at the Hollywood Palladium (which sold out).
Flogging Molly also recently announced a European trip in late spring, with several festival appearances during the month-long tour, including outings at Rock Am Ring, Rock Im Park, Hellfest, and both Slam Dunk festivals. The band's annual Salty Dog Cruise sets sail on November 8, is already sold out, and will feature Pennywise, The Interrupters, Stiff Little Fingers and many more.
