Dancingman Promotions After doing the door for so many gigs since 2012 I thought it would be fun to put on my own gigs occasionally. I'm also a DJ on https://www.moshville.radio/

Someone once said if you really want to see certain bands play together book the gig yourself. When I was about to turn 30 I thought it would be fun to put on 3 bands which make me laugh. So I asked The Wheatsheaf if I could put on a gig. I then asked We Are Goose, Beaver Fuel, and The Crushing. Thankfully all 3 said yes and my 30th Birthday went quite well. As my 30th went well I decided to book

another gig for my 31st this time with a different 3 bands I had enjoyed listening to. So I asked Gemma Moss, Headcount and Peerless Pirates. Lots of people (including people I didn't even know) came along. So third times the charm My 32nd Birthday which also became 2 other celebrations. I had quite a mix of different bands: Headington Hillbillies, Osprey and Co, Barry and The Beachcombers (which also became a farewell gig before Magic Booker moved to Australia. Their set was recorded and released on Bandcamp), and an album launch for Space Heroes of The People. After having organised 3 gigs I decided I liked being an occasional promoter and so went on booking one or two gigs a year, with a different line up every gig to keep things fresh. Then in 2019 things took a slight change. I finally got around to setting up a page. Just before The Cellar closed down I put on an evening of punk with Richie Stix and The Brain People, Grub, and Beaver Fuel. I don't normally care about people's day jobs however on this occasion I was happy to know members of Grub, and Beaver Fuel were either working at/previously working at Blackwells Music and so a lot of the staff past and present came to the gig. I then began to book touring bands with local support acts with the hope of some people turning up to see bands they knew and sticking around to see bands they didn't know. I also setup a Patreon I figured as people happily invest in Membership Deals for Cinemas and Gyms, why not try and start something for gigs to help pay for hiring venues etc.

[FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE]

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.

About Molly Karloff: Since their formation in 2018, Molly Karloff has been making waves in the rock world with their distinctive sound, blending electrifying riffs with infectious melodies. The band's debut EP, Dancing for Money, set the stage for their rise, which was solidified by the follow-up EP, Supernaturalation, and their latest album, Breaking Out. With a loyal fan base and critical acclaim from outlets like Classic Rock Magazine and Powerplay Magazine, Molly Karloff continues to push the boundaries of modern rock.
