Following a triumphant sold-out performance in London last year, Tuam rock legends The Saw Doctors have announced their return to Hammersmith's iconic Eventim Apollo on Halloween night, October 31st, 2024.

The eight-piece rock band will be hitting the road this summer for a packed schedule, playing some of the world’s most famous stages from NYC’s Central Park to Paradiso Club in Amsterdam.

On June 29th, The Saw Doctors perform Dublin’s Fairview Park for a rollicking outdoor performance you don’t want to miss. On July 27th and 28th, the band will play a two-night hometown show at Heineken Big Top for the Galway Arts Festival. For tickets, please see here.

The band's core songwriting duo, Davy Carton (lead vocals) and Leo Moran (electric guitar), will be joined by longtime members Rickie O’Neill (drums), Kieran Duddy (keyboards and accordion) and Tommy Carton (backing vocals). They'll also be welcoming back bassist Pearse Doherty, who brings his talents on bass guitar, wooden flute, and penny whistle. Rounding out the impressive lineup are acclaimed musicians Anthony Thistlethwaite (saxophone, formerly of The Waterboys) and Noelie McDonnell (guitar and backing vocals, The Whileaways).

The London gig announcement at Eventim Apollo comes just days before the band release their brand new single, ‘Man in the Moon,’ which drops this Friday, May 24th. Written by Leo Moran, Davy Carton, and Padraig Stevens, the track was produced by Philip Tennant at Ireland’s Grouse Lodge Studios.

The Saw Doctors’ 2023 comeback tour, following a five-year hiatus, was a resounding success, marked by sold-out shows in London, Manchester, and a rousing performance at Electric Picnic.

Tickets for the Eventim Apollo show go on sale Friday, May 24th at 10am via Ticketmaster or Gigs and Tours.
