Warriors Of The Rainbow Bridge – certainly not your average album title with merely a meaningful ring. Relevant and symbolic at the same time, it’s a moniker that Molly Hatchet chose in memory of Bobby Ingram’s late wife, Stephanie. “She was an irreplaceable part of my life, and of Molly Hatchet. She died totally unexpectedly in April 2004 while I was touring the States with the band. Stephanie was an important member of the Molly Hatchet family and has now crossed the rainbow bridge, the bridge to heaven. She’s still with us, only on the other side of the bridge.“
Ingram compensated last spring’s severe stroke of fate by concentrating even more intensely on the recordings of the new Molly Hatchet album. Naturally, the tragic event had a significant influence on his songwriting. “There were a lot of great emotions involved when I started working on the material for Warriors Of The Rainbow Bridge,” Ingram remembers. The guitarist used these emotions to write the band’s most intense and dynamic album to date. The record shows Molly Hatchet the way their fans love them – what Ingram calls a ”high-intensity kick-ass Southern rock boogie album”, referring to the – as he puts it – “… big time heavy production”, commenting: “It’s the toughest, most haunting album that we’ve ever cut. It’s rooted deeply in the Southern rock tradition and sounds ambitioned down to the last note. Southern rock is more than a musical genre, it’s a philosophy of life.”
This of world view materialises in ever single song, every single line that vocalist Phil McCormack has penned. The opener ´Son Of The South` is a real Southern rock anthem. “The perfect radio number,” opine Molly Hatchet, having presented the track during their gigs even before its release to unanimously positive reactions. “The fans were totally enthusiastic and told us they already consider this number a Molly Hatchet classic.” The same goes for ´Rainbow Bridge`, a 7-minute epic that builds up slowly but surely, culminating in long, furious jam session. “A wonderful song, true to the band’s tradition,” Ingram describes the fascination that the track holds. In other places, Molly Hatchet rock to their hearts’ content, letting their guitars roar unrestrainedly on ´Moonlight Dancin` on the Bayou`. Quote Ingram: “A strong, swampy-type rock’n’roll boogie song.“ So it’s only logical that the Molly Hatchet boss insisted on producing the album himself. “As a musician, you know yourself and your ideas best. You avoid frictional loss if the composer doubles as the producer.”
Molly Hatchet continue to rely on continuity with Warriors Of The Rainbow Bridge: their current line-up consists of Phil McCormack (vocals), Bobby Ingram (guitar), Shawn Beamer (drums & percussion), and John Galvin (keyboards, vocals). Dave Hlubek, their guitarist of many years, has returned, and bassist Tim Lindsey, formerly with Southern rock colleagues Lynyrd Skynyrd, has joined the band as a new addition.
