The Waterboys

The Waterboys

The Waterboys have been led by Scottish singer/guitarist Mike Scott since the 1980s and have evolved through many line-ups, winning a fearsome concert reputation along the way. One of the best live bands in the world, the 2025 group features double keyboard players Brother Paul from Memphis and James Hallawell from Cornwall, and is grounded by killer Irish rhythm section Aongus Ralston (bass) and Eamon Ferris (drums).

They reconfigure music from all stages of the band's career, from the early big music of The Whole Of The Moon and classic album This Is The Sea through the roots-inspired Fisherman's Blues era and the run of in-form records that have poured out since 2015's Nashville-recorded Modern Blues, taking in soul, funk, country-rock and any other kind of music they care to play.

Waterboys songs feature in the recent live sets of The War On Drugs, Bleachers, U2, The Killers, Tom Jones and many others but no one plays Waterboys quite like The Waterboys.

This year the band is touring their audacious new album on Sun records, Life, Death And Dennis Hopper, which tells the story of the maverick American actor and trailblazer. Audiences can expect Waterboys classics, new directions, drama, improvisation and musical fireworks.
