If it's a seven-minute mash-up manifesto you're after, look no further than ‘My Wanderings In The Weary Land’, a tune that is darkly appropriate for our weird, wired times.
Featuring one of Mike Scott's most Dylan-esque ever vocals and fabulously psychedelic guitar, it's the first taster from The Waterboys' new album, Good Luck, Seeker, which will be with us on August 21.
That's all we're being told for the time being, so stay tuned to both hotpress.com and https://www.tiktok.com/@mickpuckwaterboy where "Mike has begun posting short video clips including music/art commentary, rock & roll fashion, trying out his kids' musical instruments and lots more besides. Once tour life resumes we may even see some cool Waterboys footage from the road!"
He's probably fifty years older than the average TikTok user, but he's taken to the medium like, er, a duck to a Waterboy.
