A rock band called The Molotovs, consisting of siblings Matthew, 17, and Issey Cartlidge, 19, will be joining the popular artist Yungblud on his upcoming arena tour, which has already sold out. Due to overwhelming demand, Yungblud, whose real name is Dominic Harrison, has added extra dates to the tour, including shows in Sheffield, Liverpool, and Belfast.
The Molotovs recently performed a sold-out show at Camden’s Electric Ballroom, where they showcased tracks from their debut album and premiered new songs like Urbia and My Metallic Wife. Known for their punk and edgy style, the band engaged in moshing and crowd-surfing during the energetic performance, supported by The Suki’s and Soaked. Notable attendees at the event included music icons Sir Paul McCartney and James McCartney.
With their upcoming single “Rhythm of Yourself,” produced by Jason Perry at Marshall Studios, The Molotovs aim to secure their third consecutive UK No. 1 hit. Their debut album, “Wasted On Youth,” is set to be released on January 30 through Marshall Records. Despite their young age, the siblings have already amassed an impressive resume, having played over 600 shows alongside renowned acts like Iggy Pop, Sex Pistols, and The Libertines, and gaining fans such as Green Day and Paul Weller.
Issey expressed excitement about touring with Yungblud, praising his contributions to British rock and anticipating more success for both Yungblud and The Molotovs. Yungblud, in turn, expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support, leading to the addition of extra dates in Sheffield, Liverpool, and Belfast. Fans who pre-order Yungblud’s One More Time EP with Aerosmith will receive a pre-sale code for the added tour dates.
