THE Saw Doctors will perform at the Tramshed, Cardiff following exceptional demand for their current dates.

Having taken a break from the road following their extensive 2012 tour, prominent Irish folk-rockers The Saw Doctors recently announced their return to the UK with a full nationwide tour starting in November.

Starting out playing in local pubs, The Saw Doctors were invited out on tour with Mike Scott of The Waterboys, spending six 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 number two 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

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.

Having recently regrouped, chief songwriters Davy Carton and Leo Moran precede the UK tour with intimate dates across Ireland to road-test their brand new material before touring the US.

The Saw Doctors will perform in Cardiff on Monday, November 28.
