Tom Waters, the young rising star in the world of rhythm & blues, jazz, funk, blues, Latin and roots music, and his band are joining forces with Aussie guitar legend Geoff Achison for an exhilarating one-of-a-kind experience.   Waters is a graduate of the prestigious Royal Academy of Music in London who has recorded or played with legends like The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, George Thorogood, Ray Davies and the BB King All Stars. His list of collaborators reads like a who's who of rock ’n' roll royalty, and he’s also a regular with Jools Holland’s R&B Orchestra. Tom is a force to be reckoned with on the sax. This tour comes in the wake of the release of his debut songwriting album BLOWIN’ UP, featuring contributions from Jools Holland, Chanel Haynes, the Cinelli Brothers & Ariel Posen. With a growing catalogue of recordings behind him already, Tom proves beyond doubt that the sax can Rock ‘n Roll!    Achison is an iconic figure in blues and roots music in Australia. Starting out under the tutelage of Australian blues legend Dutch Tilders, Geoff has carved out his own path, blending blues, soul, funk, and folk into a signature sound that has captivated audiences worldwide. With an international career spanning decades and 14 albums under his belt, Geoff has been compared to greats Eric Clapton, JJ Cale, and The Allman Brothers Band.  Known for their fiery musicianship, their Brush with the Blues promises an unforgettable, action-packed set stacked with hard-hitting originals alongside timeless roots classics. From blistering sax & guitar solos to deep pocket rhythm and soul-drenched vocals, this is live music at its best.
