Formed in 1981, following a newspaper advertisement from the band’s only constant member Mike Scott, The Waterboys were a changing line-up of musicians from Scotland, Ireland and England, who spent time developing their mix of Celtic folk music with rock and roll in many different locations; including Edinburgh, London, Dublin, Spiddal, New York, and Findhorn.
Their eponymously titled debut in 1983 written by Mike Scott included the single A Girl Called Johnny, a tribute to Patti Smith.
