The Waterboys Blend Many Music Genres Including Celtic and Rock

Mike Scott and Steve Wickham and the Waterboys played the Neptune Theater in Seattle Washington Oct 11, 2013. Rolling Stone Magazine describes their sound as “an impressive mixture of rock music and Celtic ruralism.” Scott is from Scotland and Wickham from Ireland. This band should be a household name for anyone who loves Celtic music. Their shows are full of lively interchanges among the musicians but none more fiery than between Steve Wickham (described by Mike Scott as the world’s greatest rock fiddler) and Mike Scott.
