About
Holy Moly and the Crackers are a “gypsy folk and roll” band, based in the UK. Described as “a re-imagining of three traditional folk/blues songs that evokes eras of whiskey and guns on modern punk folk steroids”. Tracks from the album and EP have been played by Amazing Radio, BBC Introducing and leading music critic Mike Harding.

Holy Moly and the Crackers are influenced by an eclectic range of styles and artists; the honest grit and gravel of Woody Guthrie, the gypsy bone-cage burlesque of Gogol Bordello, the spectral clarity of Joni Mitchell. As such they play a lively, moonshine mix of Romani, Americana and contemporary British folk-rock.

A fearsome live band, they’ve built a loyal following on the road playing well over 200 shows throughout the UK, Europe and many festival stages. The summer of 2015 is set to be their best yet with scheduled festival performances across the country, including Boomtown Fair, Solfest, Galtres Festival, Kendal Calling, Secret Garden Party, Deer Shed, and folk festivals in Grassington, Filey and Beverly.
