The Molotovs Announce Epic Christmas Party at Bush Hall: 11 Dec 2025
Teenage British rock sensations The Molotovs – the brother-sister duo already dubbed “the future of British rock” – are throwing the ultimate Christmas blowout at London’s iconic Bush Hall on Thursday 11 December 2025. All profits go to the Music Venue Trust, and you can get FREE ENTRY just by pre-ordering their explosive debut album Wasted On Youth (out 30 Jan 2026 via Marshall Records).
Expect special guests, punk-rock chaos, and the raw energy that’s seen 17-year-old Mathew and 19-year-old Issey Cartlidge rack up over 600 gigs since forming in lockdown – including sharing stages with The Libertines, Blondie, Iggy Pop, Sex Pistols’ Paul Cook, and shout-outs from Green Day and Paul Weller.
Why This Show Matters: Saving Grassroots Venues
Bush Hall holds a special place in The Molotovs’ hearts. In 2024 they helped spearhead the Save Bush Hall campaign and turned the venue into the home of their legendary Youth Explosion all-ages gigs – including the night Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook jumped onstage for a blistering “God Save The Queen”.
Matt Cartlidge: “We can’t wait to get back on that stage at the amazing Bush Hall. 2025 has been a big year for us, and live music generally, and we want to get behind the venues that enable us to have these special nights.”
Issey Cartlidge: “We’re looking forward to getting lots of friends and familiar faces down to Bush Hall to see out the year. Come down and join us for a massive night in west London!”
Wasted On Youth – The Debut Album Dropping 30 January 2026
After three consecutive Top 10 UK Physical Singles Chart smashes – “More More More”, “Today’s Gonna Be Our Day”, and “Rhythm Of Yourself” – the wait is nearly over.
Wasted On Youth (Marshall Records) is the full-throttle, no-holds-barred debut from Britain’s most exciting young rock band. Pre-order the album bundle from Sister Ray Records (Berwick Street, Soho) and you’ll get FREE ENTRY to the Bush Hall Christmas party.
