The Saw Doctors make a welcome return to the Sligo Live Festival, they'll be performing live at Knocknarea Arena on Sunday, October 30.
The band were discovered by Mike Scott of The Waterboys, who produced the band’s first single, 'N17', written by singer Davy Carton and guitarist Leo Moran. Scott offered the band a support slot on The Waterboy’s Irish and British Tour and The Saw Doctors never looked back.
They topped the Irish Music Singles Chart with their punked up version of the Sugababes song 'About You Now' and 'I Useta Lover' still holds the record for the biggest selling Irish single.
The band’s debut If This Is Rock & Roll, I Want My Old Job Back was No. 1 in Ireland for almost a year.
The Saw Doctors continue with resilience and effervescent energy, with a new album in the works and a return to touring in late 2016 and next year.
Tickets: Limited Seating €29.50 (plus service charge) / Standing €27.50 (plus service charge) are on sale now.
