In September 2026, Ben & Tom Waters return to Canada for their first tour together here in several years — bringing their electrifying father-and-son show to venues across British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.

This is music played the way it should be: live, dangerous, joyful and full of heart.

Ben Waters is internationally known as one of the UK’s most explosive boogie-woogie and rock ’n’ roll pianists — a performer whose high-energy style has taken him around the world and onto stages with some of the biggest names in music.

Tom Waters is a Royal Academy of Music graduate and a formidable saxophonist whose sound spans blues, soul, funk and rhythm & blues. From the raw power of Big Jay McNeely to the groove of Maceo Parker and the sophistication of David Sanborn, Tom brings fire, authority and huge musicality to every performance.

Tom first stepped on stage with his dad just before his eighth birthday. Seventeen years later — after world touring, thousands of gigs and even leaving school for three years to tour internationally — the musical connection between them is close to telepathic.

Between them they have played and shared stages with The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, Ray Davies, Rod Stewart, Mick Hucknall, Dave Stewart, Johnny Depp and many more.

Canada holds a special place in their story.
Tom has been touring the country since childhood — performing here regularly both with his father and with his own bands — and both musicians have built a strong connection with Canadian audiences over the years.

This special run of shows brings their explosive combination of boogie-woogie piano and powerhouse saxophone back to Canada for a night of music that lifts the roof and warms the room at the same time.

What to expect:

• Thundering boogie-woogie piano
• Blistering, soul-drenched saxophone
• Blues swagger
• Funk grooves
• Rock ’n’ roll mayhem
• Big laughs
• Big heart

It’s a show that leaves audiences buzzing long after the final note.
