The Saw Doctors announce 2017 Belfast return
Legendary folk rockers, The Saw Doctors play their first Belfast live show in over three years in 2017
Legendary folk rockers, The Saw Doctors play their first Belfast live show in over three years at the Ulster Hall on January 21st 2017.
Tickets for the show will go on sale from the Ulster Hall box office and ticketmaster.ie on Thursday 20th October.
Having taken a break from the road following their extensive 2012 tour, chief songwriters Davy Carton and Leo Moran recently announced The Saw Doctors’ return, to the joy of their worldwide family of adoring fans.
Starting out playing in local pubs, The Saw Doctors were invited out on tour with Mike Scott of The Waterboys, spending 6 weeks touring the UK 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’.
Over the years, The Saw Doctors have built up a reputation as an unmissable live band with countless sold out tours to an abundance of festival appearances, including Glastonbury and T in the Park. Famed for their unrelenting energy, a Saw Doctors live show is performed with as much passion and fervour as their small-town pub gigs 28 years ago.
