Red Molly are among a select few whom I've begged to do a show in Lubec. The other girl group is "Les Hay Babies." Ok, maybe not begged - perhaps just humbled myself with a "pleeeeeze!" and got the old "talk to our manager" routine. Seriously, RM did get to Eastport (intro photo) and my CD is autographed by Molly Ventor with a "Fred - bring us back to Maine!" inscription so it's not like we didn't try. Le Hay Babies have been close - we talked about it in St Andrews when I first met them and again at Steve Peers' place in Ellsworth. But then they were off to Europe and that was that. For now, at least.
Here's a photo of the original Mollies with Carolann Solebello and George Wirth doing "Old Dancin' Fool." I suspect this photo is by Brenda Wirth. Back story on Carolann Solebello's profile.
The rest of this is from the Mollie's newsletter, to which you can subscribe on their site - http://www.redmolly.com/
Of course, these days Laurie, Molly, and Abbie are all doing various online things so I'll include their web sites as well, where you can find ways to support their endeavors.
