Molly Karloff Drummer Jowie Adkins Announces Departure to Pursue a New Chapter: The Circus Calls
Rock band Molly Karloff is now seeking a new drummer as Jowie Adkins prepares to bid farewell after contributing to the band’s electrifying sound since 2019.
[Oxford, UK, 30th August 2024]: Molly Karloff, the Oxfordshire-based rock trio known for their gripping riffs and unstoppable melodies, announces the departure of their drummer, Jowie Adkins. Jowie has decided to embark on a "new chapter" in his life—one that involves fulfilling a lifelong dream of running away to join the circus. He will, however, remain with the band until a suitable replacement is found.
Jowie Adkins joined Molly Karloff in late 2019, shortly after the recording of the band’s second EP, Supernaturalation. His drumming prowess became an integral part of the band’s unique sound, particularly on their critically acclaimed debut album, Breaking Out. Known for his signature style that blends intricate grooves with heavy rock rhythms, Jowie has played a pivotal role in shaping the band's musical journey.
Reflecting on his departure, Jowie shared, "It’s time for a new chapter, and I’ve always thought I’d make the perfect bearded lady. The world—especially the far-flung areas of Scotland and elsewhere—needs to experience this. I don’t know where ‘elsewhere’ is, but I’m sure they need a good dose of bearded ladyness."
As Jowie prepares for his grand circus debut, Molly Karloff is now searching for a new drummer who not only possesses strong double kick technique and an ear for complex grooves but also has an image that complements the band’s distinctive style. Molly Karloff’s visual identity is a key part of their brand, and they are seeking someone who can naturally fit into this aesthetic. While technical skills and musical compatibility are paramount, the band recognizes that the right visual presence is essential for maintaining their cohesive image. Potential candidates are encouraged to review the band's press photography to gauge if they align with or can adapt to this look.
Jowie will remain with the band to fulfil all current commitments and hopes to have a replacement in place by the end of the year.
