Having taken a break from the road following their extensive 2012 tour, prominent Irish folk-rockers The Saw Doctors have announced their return to the U.K. with a full nationwide tour this winter and will be coming to Liverpool’s Philharmonic Hall on November 30th.
Starting out playing in local pubs, The Saw Doctors were invited out on tour with Mike Scott of The Waterboys, spending six weeks touring the U.K. in 1989. After this, The Saw Doctors went from strength to strength when single ‘I Useta Lover’ spent nine weeks at number one and became Ireland’s best-selling single of all time. They followed up with the No 2 hit, N17, and a chart-topping album, If This Is Rock And Roll, I Want My Old Job Back. A steady run of chart entries continued with the recent Irish number ones for their cover of Sugababes’ ‘About You Now’.
