As a pitch for a movie it would be perfect - Irish parents sell the family home, buy a van and hit the road with their musical children in search of fame and fortune. But, as Orla Molloy recounts in Are We There Yet – the amazing story of the Molloy family aka Who's Eddie, this wasn't fiction but the remarkable story of one Dundalk family who took the brave step to follow their dreams.
It was a journey that took them behind the Iron Curtain, beyond the Arctic Circle, and to within a whisper of the successful career of their dreams. While stardom eluded them, they are still working in the music industry, doing what they love best, playing together and making a living.
