English rock-band The Waterboys have been added to the Live at the Marquee 2025 line-up.

The group, headed by Scottish singer Mike Scott, will play in Cork on July 10, following two other performances at the 3Arena in Dublin on June 7 and Live at Botanic Gardens in Belfast on June 8.

Some of their best-known songs include The Whole Of The Moon, How Long Will I Love You, This Is The Sea and Fisherman's Blues.

Having evolved since the 80s, the modern version of The Waterboys features double keyboard players 'Brother' Paul Brown from Memphis and James Hallawell from Cornwall, who are grounded by Irish rhythm section Aongus Ralston on bass and Eamon Ferris on drums.

The group will reconfigure music from all stages of their career, from their early hits and the roots-inspired Fisherman's Blues era, to the run of genre-fluid records that have poured out since 2015's swaggering Modern Blues.

Visitors can expect drama, improvisation, musical fireworks and Waterboys' classics, with tickets on sale from Thursday, October 17 at 9am on www.ticketmaster.ie.
