After a gap of 17 years, The Saw Doctors recently topped the Irish Music Singles Chart with their punked up version of the Sugababes song “About You Now”, beating off international artists such as Pink and Kings of Leon.
These West of Ireland rockers were discovered in Galway in the late 80’s and have since produced numerous number one hits in Ireland but their success has reached both sides of the Atlantic. In America, The Saw Doctors headlined the American Fleadh concerts with Van Morrison and Sinead O’Connor in the 90’s where they had the crowd “jumping like human pogo-sticks” according to the San Jose Mercury News.
Their powerful songs range from the plight of Ireland’s unmarried mothers to the effect of strong religion on a nation’s youth; from playing Gaelic football against a neighbouring village to loving the prettiest girl in town but lacking the courage to tell her.
The Saw Doctors have toured Canada, USA, Sweden Germany, Holland, Norway, UK and now return to Australia. Fans are promised to go home glowing from their gig crammed end to end with songs about real life.
“From Country to punk to pop and rock’n’roll”, explains the band on their success, “we stole all our favourite bits”!
