Folk rock legends The Waterboys have announced a special show at The Forum, Bath, for spring 2025.

The Waterboys have been led by Scottish singer and guitarist Mike Scott since the 1980s and although they have evolved through countless line-ups, they have built a fearless live reputation along the way.

Their best-known songs include The Whole Of The Moon, How Long Will I Love You, This Is The Sea and Fisherman's Blues.

The 2024 version of The Waterboys 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).

The band will look to reconfigure music from all stages of the band's career, from the early "big music" and the roots-inspired Fisherman's Blues era, to the run of genre-fluid records that have poured out since 2015's swaggering Modern Blues, taking in soul, funk, country-rock and much more.

‘The Waterboys live for the experience of playing and of feeling our music evolve and grow with each consecutive concert. Nothing makes us happier than playing live!’ Mike Scott
