Tom Waters to Bring His Stellar Jazz Performance to the Tivoli Theatre, Wimborne
WIMBORNE – On November 1st, 2024, Tom Waters, the 23-year-old saxophone prodigy, will take the stage at his favourite venue, the Tivoli Theatre in Wimborne, for what promises to be an unforgettable night of music. Renowned for his exceptional skills on the alto saxophone, Tom will be joined by his dynamic nine-piece band, complete with a powerful brass section and some of the most stunningly talented musicians in the UK.
Adding to the excitement, Tom’s father, boogie-woogie pianist Ben Waters, will also join the band for a couple of tunes. This father-son collaboration will surely be a highlight of the evening.
Fans will also enjoy performances by special guests Tommy Hare, the charismatic blues singer, and rising vocal star Caitlin.
In addition to the live performance, Tom is set to release his debut album later this year, which includes contributions from iconic British musician Jools Holland, whom Tom regularly works with, and acclaimed American guitarist Ariel Posen.
Tom’s resume already boasts collaborations with some of the most legendary names in music, including Sir Ray Davies, The Rolling Stones, and Jools Holland, and he has even played alongside Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts at the Tivoli. Beyond the music scene, Tom has also been a model for Ralph Lauren.
Waters, whose extraordinary talent has earned him a devoted following, has been a key figure in the jazz and blues scene despite his young age. His performances are known for their energy, soul, and technical brilliance, capturing the essence of jazz legends while infusing a fresh and modern twist. Fans can expect a setlist filled with original compositions and renditions of timeless classics, all delivered with the passion and flair that has become his signature.
The Tivoli Theatre, a much-loved venue with a rich history, provides the perfect backdrop for this musical showcase. With its intimate setting and renowned acoustics, it’s no wonder that it remains Tom’s favourite place to perform.
Support: Red River Hogs
“With a fresh take on the authentic r&b sound, the original songwriting of the Red River Hogs combines a deep south influence with a modern 21st century vibe. Front man Mick O’Hara’s gutsy vocals and soaring lead guitar carries echoes of Van Morrison and Clapton, set against Bernie’s savage bass lines and the soulful tones of Chris’s Hammond organ, together with JK’s blistering drum grooves that melt your face and call up angels and demons in equal measure.
The Hogs are regularly in demand to support the likes of Dr Feelgood, Larry Garner, Robbie Mcintosh, the Norman Beaker Blues band and Chris Farlowe, and at gigs and festivals where their original mix of hard-driving blues rock and soulful modern storytelling gets folks young and old on their feet. With two albums under their belts and a third in the pipeline, the band gets regular airtime in the UK, US and around the world. Their track “You Set Me Free” from their current album “Tallulah’s Kitchen” has been included in the UK blues compilation “UK Blues Today, Volume 2”
