About
Molly Hatchet is an American rock band formed by guitarist Dave Hlubek in Jacksonville, Florida in 1971. They experienced popularity and commercial success during the late 1970s and early to mid-1980s amongst southern rock and hard rock fans. The band released six studio albums on Epic Records between 1978 and 1984, including the platinum-selling hit records Molly Hatchet (1978), Flirtin' with Disaster (1979) and Beatin' the Odds (1980). They also had charting singles on the US Billboard charts, including "Flirtin' with Disaster", "The Rambler", "Bloody Reunion" and "Satisfied Man". Molly Hatchet has released many more studio albums since their split with Epic Records in 1985, although none have been as successful as their early albums, nor have charted in the United States.
As of August 2, 2020, all of the band's original members are deceased. The Molly Hatchet trademark is owned by Bobby Ingram, their guitarist since 1987 (when he replaced founding member Dave Hlubek, who rejoined the band eighteen years later and stayed with them until his death in 2017). The other veterans in the lineup are keyboardist John Galvin, who has been a member since 1984 (with the exception of a break in the mid-1990s), and bassist Tim Lindsey, with vocalist Parker Lee and drummer Garrett Ramsden rounding out the current incarnation of the band.

Molly Hatchet est un groupe américain de rock sudiste issu de Jacksonville, en Floride, fondé au début des années 1970 par Danny Joe Brown (chant, harmonica, guitare), Dave Hlubeck, Duane Roland, Steve Holland (guitares), Banner Thomas (basse) et Bruce Crump (batterie). La carrière du groupe culmine en 1979 avec la parution de son deuxième album intitulé Flirtin' with Disaster avant de décliner inévitablement dans les années 80, le groupe étant déstabilisé par de nombreux changements de musiciens qui vont se traduire dans les années 90 par l'absence de tout musicien issu de la formation originale du groupe. Ayant rejoint Molly Hatchet en 2005, le guitariste Dave Hlubeck restait le seul musicien rescapé de la formation originale du groupe qui publia son premier album éponyme en 1978, mais son décès survenu en septembre 2017 fait à nouveau de Molly Hatchet une formation ne comprenant dans ses rangs plus aucun musicien de sa formation originale et qui peut être considérée non plus comme un groupe au sens classique du terme mais comme une marque exploitée commercialement.
Le 3 août 2020, meurt le dernier membre d'origine du groupe Steve Holland, faisant du groupe, avec Motörhead, les Ramones, Lynyrd Skynyrd et The Jimi Hendrix Experience, l'un des groupes de rock de renommée mondiale dont les membres d'origine sont tous décédés.
