According to drum manufacturer Sonor's website, Samantha Maloney toured with Mötley Crüe until January 2001 and can be seen and heard on the "Lewd, Crued, and Tattooed" DVD as well as live material on the album New Tattoo. Asked by NRK to share some Crüe tour stories, she demurred – "All I can say is: You can't even imagine!"
She went on to form a short-lived supergroup called The Chelsea with fellow female rockers Melissa Auf der Maur of Hole and the Smashing Pumpkins, Paz Lenchantin of A Perfect Circle and the Pixies, and Radio Sloan of The Need. In 2004, she reconnected with Courtney Love, providing drums for the album American Sweetheart and joining Love on the road for a small number of gigs, "including Love's bizarre appearance" on the Late Show with David Letterman, which saw Love bare her breasts, light a cigarette and ramble on about "Nicole Kidman, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and her legal problems."
Other drumming stints included joining electroclash pioneer Peaches' backing band The Herm as well as playing with the Eagles of Death Metal on their 2005 tour. She also started two all-female bands, The Ingenues and the Chelsea Girls. The latter was billed, per Blabbermouth, as "the first-ever female all-star-super-cover-band" and featured members of The Donnas, Huntress, and Nashville Pussy. Maloney's range was proven once again in 2010 when she joined country legend/Miley's dad Billy Ray Cyrus's "alternative rock group" Brother Clyde.
