SPV would like to express our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Danny Joe
Brown, original singer of Southern Rock group Molly Hatchet. Mr. Brown passed away on
March 10th after complications from diabetes.
In 1975, the Jacksonville native joined Molly Hatchet, named after a Southern prostitute
who allegedly beheaded and mutilated her clients. Brown was frontman for its self-titled
album in 1978, which went platinum. In 1979 the next album, "Flirtin' With Disaster," sold
over 2 million copies.
