The Times

"Key shattering Boogie Woogie" is how the Guardian newspaper described Ben Waters after a concert at Ronnie Scott's—known for energetic performances and powerful renditions of early boogie-woogie and Rock n' Roll. Waters always plays music that he loves, the music of his heroes Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis, Amos Milburn, Little Richard, Ian Stewart and a host of other piano players. This is the music that makes him happy! This is why he dropped out of school to go on tour with Shakin Stevens. This is why he has devoted 35 years to touring the world, a devotion that's not about fame, money or popularity, just about getting the music right!

Tom Waters is a highly accomplished Rhythm and Blues and jazz Saxophone player whom from a young age has recorded and worked with numerous chart-topping bands and rock and roll legends. Waters has many awards to his name and with his band, which he tours and gigs regularly he is already proving the saxophone can rock and roll!

Tom started his professional career with his father Ben Waters at the humble age of eight, two-weeks prior to actually picking the saxophone up. Tom and his dad spent the next few years touring around the world - some of the highlights were at the glee club in Japan with piano player Keito Siato, and the several years of exclusive touring of Australia and New Zealand just as a father and son duo aswell as with Tim Ries, Bernard Fowler and Chris Jagger.

Tom has worked exclusively with Ralph Lauren and hat company Maison Michel modelling with the Saxophone in hand. He is also a regular in the Jools Holland Rhythm and blues orchestra.
