Motocade are a New Zealand Rock band formed in Auckland in 2003 by Eden Mulholland (singer/guitarist), Scott Sutherland (bass), Geordie McCallum (guitar/keyboards) and Will Mulholland (drums). In 2007 the music video for the single "My Friends" received high rotation on the New Zealand music channel C4 and Juice TV.[1] In early 2008 the music video for the single "Soap Opera" was in rotation on C4.[2] Motocade's song Octopus was featured in a Home and Away episode where Myles finds out about Roman's Afghanistan secret. Their song Oldest Trick in the Book has also been used in a Home and Away episode.

In March 2007 the EP "Into the Fall" reached number 9 on the IMNZ Album Chart.[3]

In mid-2010, the band released the song "Holy Moly", which received frequent airplay on ZM and was used as the theme song for Hamish & Andy's Reministmas Special (2010) and Hamish and Andy's Caravan of Courage – Australia vs. New Zealand (2012).
