Of all the high-concept, harebrained Stay Loose rock’n'roll fiascos, MOLLYTRONIX is gonna take the cake.

That’s right. Tuesday night upstairs at KHYBER, the latest installment of Stay Loose will feature MOLLYTRONIX. What is MOLLYTRONIX? Weíll start with the basics: have you been to Mollyís Books? You know, the used bookstore in the steady-beating heart of the Italian Market? You have? So you know what weíre talking about here: a killer bookstore with great selection, free coffee, friendly cats (both human and feline), good tunes, and a sweet vibe. I mean the place is like a Dream. Well MOLLYTRONIX is basically Bringing It in a party-style format. Like, you know how at Mollyís we had that Limited Time Special where if you bought any book by Carver or Faulkner you got a free can of beer? And you stood there in the bookstore, clutching your newly purchased piece of literature and drinking your beer and thinking, if only I could live like this all the time? MOLLYTRONIX LETS YOU DO THIS.

What you get at MOLLYTRONIX:

Joey Sweeney spinning Black Mountain, Babyshambles and David Blue. And that’s just the B’s.

Erik Bader (pictured) ashamedly playing way too much 90ís Slack Motherfucker Style Indie Rock/Pop/Fun and trying not to get too, yíknow, nostalgic in the process. Also playing some secret new shit you havenít heard yet, including some local bands whose songs you like but whose albums havenít come out yet. (How does Bader have them? We do not know.)

Matt Schwartz selling books. No weíre not kidding. Actually used books from Mollyís Books will Be For Sale with special one-time-only prices.

So get your dance on, your drink on, and your read on. MOLLYTRONIX. And shit yeah itís cool.
