When Mayo won the All-Ireland Football final on July 26, 60,000 Mayo fans celebrated in Croke Park, loudly singing ’The Green and Red of Mayo’ by The Saw Doctors.
In the days following the All-Ireland win by Mayo, the first in 75 years, 'The Green and Red of Mayo' by The Saw Doctors was heard everywhere on Irish radio and TV and reached No.1 on the Irish Spotify charts and No. 1 on iTunes.
The Saw Doctors, who are led by the band’s songwriting duo, Davy Carton (lead vocals) and Leo Moran (electric guitar), have recently welcomed back one of their founding members, Pearse Doherty, on bass guitar, vocals, penny whistle and wooden flute.
The eight-man band lineup features Anthony Thistlethwaite, formerly of The Waterboys, on saxophone and longtime members Rickie O’Neill (drums), Kieran Duddy (keyboards and accordion), Tommy Carton (backing vocals) and Noelie McDonnell (guitar and backing vocals)
