 Left to right, back first: Dennis Casey, Nathen Maxwell, George Schwindt, Bridget Regan, Matt Hensley, Bob Schmidt, Dave King Their music is heavily influenced by such bands as The Pogues, and has many references to the Roman Catholic Church and ranges from boisterous punk rock like the pirate-themed "Salty Dog" and "Seven Deadly Sins," or the defiant "What's Left of the Flag", "Drunken Lullabies", and "Rebels of the Sacred Heart" to more somber songs like "Far Away Boys", "The Son Never Shines (On Closed Doors)", or "Death Valley Queen". The driving forces behind the music tend to be King's gravelly voice and Regan's manic fiddling. Prior to forming Flogging Molly, Dave King was the vocalist for Fastway, a late 80s-early 90s heavy metal band, featuring guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke of Motörhead.

Trivia - The song "If I Ever Leave This World Alive" (studio version) is featured in Episode 8 "Scar Tissue" of Season 2 of The Shield, and was used in the first season of Showtime's Weeds as well.
- Matt Hensley (Flogging Molly's Accordionist and concertina player) is a professional skateboarder. He is currently skating for Black Label Skateboards. He is also the owner of Innes Clothing, a skateboard clothing company. A common misconception is that he skateboards in the "Drunken Lullabies" music video, when it was really Patrick Melcher another rider for Black Label Skateboards at the time.
- The song "To Youth (My Sweet Roisin Dubh)" is featured on the video Game Fifa 2005.
- The song "Salty Dog" has a melody based upon the Kesh Jig, a famous Irish tune notably used in the film Titanic, in the scene where the two lead characters are in the pub dance and Rose stands on the tips of her toes. The band playing in the scene is fellow Irish act Gaelic Storm.
- Thousands of people have the song "Salty Dog" tagged as "Pirate Song" because that's how it was first leaked on internet file sharing programs; another tag is "Irish Pub Song". Also, Flogging Molly's music is often incorrectly labelled as that of other Irish bands, notable the Dropkick Murphys. The reverse also happens.
- Flogging Molly played an unusual set at the 2006 Reading and Leeds Festival when they played twice in one day - once on the main stage and again in the Lock-Up tent.
- At the end of the song "Factory Girls" the "Richard and his court of kings" refers to Richard II of England.
