It has been a while since I sat down and sent a note out to all of you, thanking you for following my music and sharing it with your friends. The summer has been hot here in Pennsylvania, to the point of being downright uncomfortable for this Canadian transplant. But the tomatoes are doing well as are the sunflowers.
We played a couple of shows last month with the band. Both were great and we and our audiences enjoyed the music. One show was the 60th birthday party for my oldest musical friend in this neck of the woods. You can hear him on harmonica on several of my songs posted on here.
Had to have a hernia repaired and that knocked me out for a week or so. You wouldn't think that three holes poked through your side good be such a pain but believe me, they were. But I got up and walked the night after the surgery and pushed on through.
On the music front, the next release on TripleStrand Productions is going to be "Pardon My Heart" from my cd "The Drivin' Wheel". The tune was picked by the folks at TripleStrand, the next one will probably be "Tennessee Moon". I will post "Pardon My Heart" here in the next day or two. Just a couple of upcoming shows for the band. We will be on the main stage at the Shippensburg Cornfestival on the 27th of this month at 10:30am and the on October 1 we will be the Blue Side Tavern in Frederick Maryland, our first appearance there. I will be appearing solo on September 6th at the Cottage in Chambersburg.
Hope the rest of your summer or winter, depending on which hemisphere you live in. Once again thanks for all your support. C

Well, I am convinced and all of you have convinced me. My next world wide release on Triplestrand Productions compilation cd will be"Tennessee Moon". The response to the song on here has been overwhelming so it just make good sense. You, the people have spoken so because off your feedback it will get mailed out to about 2500 radio stations, both free standing and Internet world wide. That is a good thing and I appreciate it very much. My co writer will be very happy for sure.
Not much else is happening locally here in south central PA. Had a song picked up by my rural radio, at (expired link), in Stewartstown PA. If you are a fan of independent artists, and being that you are on here you all must be, I suggest you check them out. They have three playlists and do a lot for indie musicians, singers and songwriters. Aside from that, "Talkin Louisiann" and "Just One Tender Kiss" are still holding their own out in radio land on the worldwid stage.
My old friend Jesse McRae has been getting great response on his autobiography "My Four Minute Life." Thanks to all of you for your help with that. Have a great weekend and be safe if you are out in the nasty storms they are calling for on the eastern seaboard. Cheers, Cameron

My dear friend Jesse McRae has released his first book , "My Four Minute Life" the Journey of a Very Human Songwriter. Jesse as written with some of the finest songwriters in Nashville, he played more wrong side of the tracks dives and bars than just about anyone I know, has suffered more serious health issues than anyone I know, dealt with more personal demons than anyone I know and in the middle of it all, at age 56, rescued his 4 year old son from a very dangerous situation and raised him as a single father or, maybe if you read the book, you will find that his son raised (expired link) is an excellent songwriter, that he never had any major cuts has as much to do with the fickleness of the music business as anything else. After almost 15 years in Nashville and with failing health, he left and settled in Bellingham Washington where he wrote this book. We have been friends for 40 years, he has been my best friend for almost all of that (expired link) last time we saw each other was in 2000 when I road my motorcycle from Hagerstown Md to Nashville. Even after not seeing each other for 16 years, he's is still my best friend. That's what real friendship is all about. Check out (expired link).. have agreat week or until I can post here again. cheers C

Well, it would appear that spring is finally in the air here in south central Pennsylvania. Finally got the grass cut yesterday and put in an air conditioner in the window.
On the music front, still overwhelmed by the response to the songs here on Number1music. It is most gratifying to have all the tunes I have on here doing so well on the charts. As well as that is, 550 followers is really quite incredible! Folks from all over the world listening to the songs and obviously you are enjoying them as much as I enjoyed writing and recording them
We have a big performance coming up at the end of the month, April 30. We will be opening the show for our friends , "Crippled But Free", one of, if not the premier Grateful Dead cover bands in the mid Atlantic regions of the USA. If you are nearby, drop in an say hello, would like to hear from you. Check out (expired link) for info and updates on the band. Have a great day and thanks for listening to my music!

Well, Spring has sprung here in south central Pennsylvania, happy Easter to all of you sincerely hoping you had a wonderful weekend. If you don't celebrate Easter, hope you had a great weekend anyway. My apologies for the long duration between posts. I have been working through some health issues and late winter projects around here.
I have to say I am very pleased with the espouse to " Mrs Jones"',reaching number 1 in Pennsylvania and the the USA on the blues charts so soon after I posted it is beyond my wildest dreams! The song was a labor of love and I drew on my experiences and the experiences of a few friends who spent years playing in the bars along Main Street and East Hastings in downtown Vancouver back in the 1970's. There were some extremely dedicated musicians working in some great blues bands in some pretty seedy bars. The bars of course we're populated with desperadoes, hookers, pimps, sidewalk commandos, local residents, and ocassionaly on weekends,a Mrs Jones or two would show up. High class ladies from the wealthier sections of Vancouver, out for a night doing what was called at the time "slumming". So there was always a cast of thousands you know, from Les from all walks of life and the places would get pretty lively by midnight.
So anyhow, just wanted to take a moment to thanks you all for following my songs, really appreciated. "Talkin Louisiann" is going into its 26th week of international release, being played in full rotation on 434 stations worldwide and " Just One Tender Kiss" is going into its 53rd week,over a year now and still in full rotation on 200 stations world wide. Thanks to everyone who is helping those tunes along. I invite you all to drop by my webpage, (expired link) and say hello, it would be great to hear from you. Cheers, C

Well, here we go again , finally. It has been a long winter and here on the east coast of the US we were hit pretty hard by the first big snow fall of the year. Literally cripple everything for the weekend. We had 30 inches of snow in our yard. Luckily, I bought a snowblower four or five days before the storm and it sure came in handy.
On the music front, it has been slow, looking into festival opportunities for the spring and summer. Probably going to try to do some more recording,I have around twenty originals ready right now and more to come.
"Just One Tender Kiss" still amazes me, going into its 45th week after release by Triplestrand Productions it is still in full rotation on 267 indie radio stations worldwide. "Talkin Louisiann" is going into its 18th week and was re added to another 452 stations world wide. Not quite sure how many stations are on it altogether.
I am going to try to add a couple of videos to this site and as a reminder, more songs are on SoundCloud and I invite you to visit (expired link) to check out some bios and videos of the band. Have a great week, thank you each and everyone of you for the continues support. Cheers, Cameron

Well, it has been quite a year , this 2015. I sincerely hope it was a year of good fortune for all of you and that 2016 will bring more of the same. I would like to thank each and everyone of you for becoming fans of my music. If there ain't no audience, well there just ain't no show then. So the tunes on here seem to still make people happy and the couple that I have released world wide, "Talkin Louisiann" and "Just One Tender Kiss" are doing very well world wide. I am going to try to get some videos posted out here, will be talking with my web master New Years Eve to see what can be done. I may just get back into the studio to record a few new tunes this year and will be posting a couple more after the new year from my catalog. So have a Happy New Year, I wish you all much success in the coming and thanks so much for enjoying the music. Cheers C

Well friends, my apologies for not being in touch the past couple of weeks. I came down with a bad flu bug just after Thanksgiving here in the US and it really laid me low. On my second course of antibiotics , which I would rather not take but it seems to be the only way to deal with is bug.
In the interim period, " Talkin Louisiann" from my cd " The Drivin' Wheel" peaked out at around 3000 station world wide last week. I must say I am quite tickled with the radio response to the song. If you are interested in hearing an alternate arrangement of that song, checkout (expired link) magpie and give a listen to Leonard, Burns and Dell just smoking it up. Sue Leonard is my co writer on the song.
"Just One Tender Kiss", the first release off the cd continues to get international airplay with over 300 stations still playing after 36 weeks.
In other news, my band had a rocking night at the HARRISBURG MIDTOWN ARTS CENTER back on the 21st of November and there are a few videos posted on my we page, (expired link), check it out and also more tunes on SoundCloud. I will be posting a couple more songs on here later this week. Thank you all for the support, have a great week, Cameron

Howdy folks, a quick update on "Talkin Louisianne". 4 weeks after it's release the song is now in full rotation on 1893 free standing and internet radio stations around this old world. I am quite happy with all that as you can well imagine. "Just One Tender Kiss" entering week 32 after release is still in full rotation on 355 radio stations world wide. Thank you so very much for all of your support, have a great day and a great week as we enter November with old man winter, if you are in the northern hemisphere just around the corner. Be safe. Cheers, C

Just a quick note to let you all know that "Talkin Louisianne", from my cd "The Drivin' Wheel ", has been released world wide to around 2500 independent free standing and internet radio stations. In its first full week after release, it is already in full rotation, approximately 15 plays a week, on 447 stations. I am pretty excited about this and the early results. The first single, " Just One Tender Kiss", is now in its 28th week since it's release and is still in full rotation on 370 stations. Getting over half a year from that song is pretty amazing and hopefully "Talkin" will do the same.
Anyhow, great news! Also I would like you all to visit my website at (expired link).. Have a great week, I guess it will be a few days before I can send out another note, take care and have a great day. C

Well, sorry for the long delay in getting this out to all of you. It has been a bit of a crazy month to say the least. It started with a performance over Labor Day weekend at a campground in88 degree heat with 88 humidity index. Just stifling . I got sick at the end of the first set, then again at the end of the last set. Spent the next day flat on my back finally getting to the doctor that Thursday where he suggested a chest scan just in case. Finally got that Ladt Friday, the 18th, got home sitting down to have a sandwich, phone rings, Dr. Office, " stop what you are doing get to the Emergency room immediately you have a pulmonary embolism." Got my attention. Spent the night in hospital , I have 3 small clots in peripheral arteries in my right lung which is strange as I never had any pain in that side of my chest. They let me out Saturday afternoon and my Cameron Molloy acoustic band played two banging sets at Roy-Pitz Brewing Company that night. Find us and some videos on facebook at CameronMolloyacousticband.
Also , at a rehearsal leading up to that show we videoed us playing the old standard "Route 66". It was posted on facebook and to date has over 4500 plays. I will try too post it on here. " Talkin Louisianne" which you have embrace on here has been released worldwide to 2200 independent country and Americana radio station, both free standing and internet. My last single, which I will post on here today , has been out on Triplestrands compilation cd and is still in full rotation on 374 stations worldwide as of last week.
So though these health issues are a concern, the songs continue to reach out and touch people lives, like all of you folks. I am eternally grateful for your support and won't wait so long before I get the next letter out. Have a great week, God bless, Cameron

Howdy folks, sorry I am a little late with this. Last month was amazing , saw my three tunes here on Numberonemusic continue to gain new listeners and my song,"Just One Tender Kiss" which was released 18 weeks ago, world wide to over 2000 independent radio stations continue to garner airplay all over the world. SoundCloud fell off a bit compared to plays in June but all things ebb and flow. Had a few live performances around the area here in south central Pennsylvania culminating with a show last Friday night at a private function for 300 plus rabid fans with my country roots rockin sometimes jam band , the Cameron Molloy Band which morphed during the evening into its predecessor, the Sandy Hollow Bog (expired link) delivered almost two hours of originals, covers of Gillian Welch, Allison Krause and Lucinda Williams among other by the amazing Laurie Matlock right on through to some Johnny Cash/June Carter and the Ozark Mountain Daredevils finished off with some classic Grateful Dead. Sent them home with a jumpin Cumberland Blues howling for more. I will post a few more tunes here this month, I promise but if you are looking for more before I get them up checkout (expired link) or SoundCloud/molloymusic. Have a great August, will talk to you soon. If you are around Waynesboro PA this evening I will be with bassist extraordinaire Dale Sharrah on the Square starting at 5:30 pm , going until 8:00. Thanks for following my music, I appreciate it more than you will ever know. Cheers, C
