After a concert in 2005, the group was spotted by Jérôme Deschamps and Macha Makeïeff, who would later co-produced their first album with Naïve Records. At the same time, they won the Prix Paris Jeunes Talents.
The group was noticed during a concert at the Printemps de Bourges in 2006 and 2007. Jimmy, the first single from their first album Gee Whiz But This is A Lonesome Town (2007), was a success which allowed Moriarty to play at La Cigale.

The group went on a long tour that took them to Canada, Switzerland, Spain, Germany, and England.
In 2008, Moriarty performed at the Soliday festival, Eurockéennes de Belfort, Francofolies de La Rochelle, and Fête de l'Humanité.
The group takes its inspiration from traditional Celtic music, country, and blues.
The group plays around one microphone during their concerts.
En 2008, Moriarty was one of 10 artists nominated for the Constantin prize.

Moriarty Lyrics

I feel pretty and witty and bright
And i pity
Any girl who isn't me tonight
I feel charming, oh so charming
It's alarming how charming i feel
And so prettyThat i hardly can believe i'm real
See the pretty girl in that mirror there?
Who can that attractive girl be?
Such a pretty face, such a pretty smile
Such a pretty dress, such a pretty me
I feel stunning and entrancing
Feel like running and dancing for joy
For i'm loved
By a pretty, wonderful boy

@winonification no, he really dated her.
they went out three times.
jim texted her on her blog, where he said that she has a cute nose.
they started talking, and then he invited her to grab a coffee in the canteen.
later he was in her house. she introduced him to her cat, toby. they watched glee together and jim learned her how to use autocorrect.
it's all written in her blog.
when she found out that he was gay (well, when sherlock told her), molly got angry at him and started shouting. she dumped him.
later she was worried, because he didn't show up to work and his boss was getting angry. she apologized to him for screaming at him, told him it was okay if he's gay, but she wanted him to let her now, that he's okay.
then she found out that jim from it was actually jim moriarty.
that's the end of their love story :P

The fact that Sherlock was not only looking at Moriarty’s underwear but knows what brand is “gay” gets me every time.

It's just so he can be more "deductive".
