Информация о артисте
Эта команда из Джексонвилля (штат Флорида) получила название по имени "развеселой тетки" Молли Хэтчет, которая отрубала головы своим любовникам после бурной ночи. Группа образовалась в начале 70-х, однако прошло несколько лет перед тем, как сформировался подходящий состав, и коллектив получил контракт от фирмы "Epic".
К моменту выхода дебютного альбома в команде насчитывалось шесть человек: Дэнни Джо Браун (р. 25 августа 1951 г., ум. 10 марта 2005 г.; вокал), Дэйв Хлабек (гитара), Дуэйн Роланд (гитара), Стив Холланд (гитара), Баннер Томас (бас) и Брюс Крамп (ударные). Зажигательный южный рок с трехгитарными атаками и мощным ревом Брауна пришелся слушателям по вкусу, и пластинка быстро пересекла платиновый рубеж.
Второй лонгплей оказался еще удачнее – благодаря заглавному треку "Flirtin' With Disaster" пробился в лучшую двадцатку, а его тираж вдвое обогнал своего предшественника. Несмотря на стремительный взлет "Molly Hatchet", в 1980 году команду покинул Браун. Его место занял Джимми Фаррар, но поскольку новый фронтмен не обладал таким выразительным вокалом, как Дэнни, популярность группы стала снижаться.
И все же "Молли" по инерции продолжали пользоваться коммерческим успехом, а альбомы, записанные с Фарраром ("Beatin' The Odds" и "Take No Prisoners") попали в "Billboard" соответственно на 25-е и 36-е место. В 1982-м Джимми ушел делать сольную карьеру, и в группу вернулся Дэнни Джо Браун. Одновременно в составе появился клавишник Джон Гэлвин, и сменилась ритм-секция: за бас взялся Рифф Вест, а ударные отошли к Би Би Бордену. На "No Guts...No Glory" команда попыталась вернуться к своим корням, однако, как ни странно, альбом провалился. В 1984 году по настоянию Хлабека группа сменила ориентиры и выдала поп-роковую работу "Deed Is Done", в которой мало чего осталось от фирменного стиля "Molly Hatchet".
В 1985-м вышел концертник "Double Trouble", после чего коллектив заметно сбавил обороты. Наконец в 1989-м "Молли" вернулись, но уже без Хлабека и с новым контрактом от "Capitol Records". Увы, камбэк потерпел фиаско, и диск "Lightning Strikes Twice", начиненный слащавым AOR-ом, отказались покупать даже упертые фаны "MH".
Получив столь сильный удар, "Molly Hatchet" завязали со студийной деятельностью на более продолжительный срок. Тем не менее, несмотря на кадровую лихорадку, в первой половине 90-х команда все же продолжала давать концерты. В этот период у Брауна обострились проблемы со здоровьем, а когда музыканты все-таки надумали сотворить новый альбом, ему пришлось уйти. Диск "Devil's Canyon" записывался в составе Бобби Ингрэм (гитара), Джон Гэлвин (клавишные), Фил МакКормэк (вокал), Брайан Бассетт (гитара), Энди МакКинни (бас) и Мак Кроуфорд (ударные). На сей раз команда, похоже, решила больше не экспериментировать с мэйнстримом, а окончательно вернулась на тропу южного рока.
Это подтвердили и последующие работы ("Silent Reign Of Heroes", "Kingdom Of XII", "Warriors Of The Rainbow Bridge"), а также концерты, включавшие в себя неизменные боевики "Flirtin With Disaster", "Gator Country", "Whiskey Man", "Dreams I'll Never Dee". В конце 90-х и последующие годы "Molly Hatchet" выпустили изрядное количество лайвов, а свой 25-летний юбилей отметили сборником "25th Anniversary: Best Of Re-Recorded". Read more on Last.fm.

Molly Hatchet is a Southern rock band that was formed in Jacksonville, Florida in 1975, still touring to this day. Known primarily for their hit song "Flirtin' with Disaster" from the album of the same title, the group began when guitarists Dave Hlubek and Steve Holland came upon the name of legendary axe murderer Hatchet Molly. The original band included the late vocalist Danny Joe Brown, additional guitarist Duane Roland, bassist Banner Thomas, and drummer Bruce Crump.
After the guys worked on their sound for a while, inspired by gritty rock n roll, they finally recorded and released their first album, 1978's 'Molly Hatchet'. Then, in 1979, 'Flirtin' with Disaster' came out. The group's work earned them both critical praise and commerical success, the album hitting the #19 slot on the Billboard top 200 chart. Allmusic's Rob Theakston has spoken for many in writing that the "tour de force" of a record shows that " the band means business".
Yet the group's history would prove to be a rocky one. In 1980, Brown left the group to form The Danny Joe Brown Band (with future Molly Hatchet guitarist Bobby Ingram). He was replaced by vocalist Jimmy Farrar. After the release of Beatin' the Odds in 1980 and Take No Prisoners in 1981, Farrar left as well.
Brown rejoined the band in 1982 and Banner Thomas left and was replaced by Riff West. In 1983, a new album was released titled No Guts... No Glory. Steve Holland left and was replaced by keyboardist John Galvin.
In 1984 came the release of a new album The Deed Is Done. In 1985 Dave Hlubek left and he was replaced by Bobby Ingram. Then in 1985, the double live album Double Trouble Live was released.
The band continued to tour regularly, and then in 1989 the album Lightning Strikes Twice was released.
1990s
In 1991, the greatest hits collection Greatest Hits was released. Molly Hatchet was in ways similar to fellow Southern rockers Lynyrd Skynyrd in that it paired strong guitar work with a pounding boogie beat. When Brown left the band after Flirtin' with Disaster and was replaced by Farrar, the band's sound turned more to jamming and free form. When Brown returned in time for No Guts...No Glory, the original sound returned as well.
In 1996 due to a stroke and illness Brown had to leave the band, bringing in lead singer Phil McCormack to finish the album Devils Canyon in 1996.
At this point, the band consisted of members: vocalist Phil McCormack, guitarists Bobby Ingram and Bryan Bassett, keyboardist John Galvin, bassist Andy McKinney, and drummer Mac Crawford.
In 1998 Silent Reign Of Heroes was released. And in 1999 the band traveled coast to coast with Charlie Daniels and the Volunteer Jam.
2000s
In 2000, the album The Kingdom Of XII was released in Europe. The band went on tour to promote this album. It was released in the United States in 2001. Locked and Loaded (2003) and Warriors of the Rainbow Bridge (2005) followed. In January of 2005, Ingram invited Hlubek to rejoin Molly Hatchet and in doing so became the only current member who was a part of the original band.
On Thursday, March 10, 2005, after Brown was hospitalized for four weeks, he died less than an hour after returning to his home in Davie, Florida with his family and friends at his side, at the age of 53 from complications from pneumonia. He had previously left the group due to the suffering from a massive stroke in 1995 while driving to his brother's house. After a long battle with diabetes and the effects of the stroke, Brown was able to take the stage one last time at the Jammin' for DJB benefit concert in 1998 where with the help of his friends he ended the show with "Flirtin' with Disaster."
On Monday, June 19, 2006, founding guitarist Duane Roland died in St. Augustine, Florida at the age of 53. He had been playing with the band Gator Country, consisting of former members of Molly Hatchet, as late as May of 2006. His death was listed as being of "natural causes".
Bruce Crump (July 17, 1957 – March 16, 2015) was the original drummer from 1976 to 1983 (including their 1980 hit song "Flirtin' with Disaster" ) and 1984 to 1991. He also played as a member of Canadian band Streetheart in the early 1980s, and joined several of his former Molly Hatchet bandmates in the band Gator Country in the mid-2000s. At his death, Crump was in the Jacksonville, Florida-based band White Rhino and the newly reformed China Sky.
Nowadays, Molly Hatchet is: Bobby Ingram (Lead Guitars, Slide and Acoustic), Phil McCormack (Lead Vocals, Harmonica), Dave Hlubek (Lead Guitars And BG Vocals), John Galvin (Keyboards, Hammond B-3 And BG Vocals), Tim Lindsey (Bass And BG Vocals) and Shawn "Thunder" Beamer (Drums And Percussion)
