The Waterboys will perform a special series of dates in August and September 2026 under the banner THE FISHERMAN'S BLUES REVUE. The shows will celebrate and explore the music of the Waterboys' classic Fisherman's Blues era of the mid-late 1980s. Legendary Waterboys fiddler Steve Wickham will rejoin the band for the shows, and in an exciting development the ensemble will be graced by great American singer/songwriter Steve Earle, who will perform as a member of the Revue, singing his own songs while adding vocals, guitar and mandolin to Waterboys numbers.
The shows will follow hot on the heels of the release of ATLANTIC RAIN, a 3-disc set of previously undiscovered music from the Fisherman's Blues sessions, to be issued July 17 2026 on Chrysalis Records.
Waterboys leader Mike Scott: says "The Fisherman's era was a transcendent time for The Waterboys and it's always exciting to delve into its spirit and see what happens. We'll be performing with an eight-piece band including the mighty Steve Earle who I've wanted to do a project with for many years. He'll bring Americana roots and killer songs to the party, and these promise to be among the best Waterboys shows ever."
Other band members include Brother Paul (organ), Famous James (piano), Aongus Ralston (bass), Eamon ferris (drums) and Norwegian petal steel ace Roar Øien.
