The Saw Doctors on tour in support of new CD/DVD

Irish super-group, The Saw Doctors are on tour in support of their forthcoming March 17, 2009 release of the new documentary DVD, Clare Island to Cape Cod: The Saw Doctors in Concert and its companion Live CD, Live at the Melody Tent.

The new documentary film Clare Island to Cape Cod: The Saw Doctors in Concert, directed by Steven Lock (David Bowie: An Earthling at 50 Documentary) focuses on the band’s smartly written music and solid rapport with its live audience. It is a combination of creative and fun live performance interspersed with talking and joking that mimics any standup comedian. Much of the footage on the DVD comes from the August 2008, Cape Cod Melody Tent concert in Hyannis, MA.

Shamtown Records has released a companion Live CD Live at the Melody Tent featuring audio tracks from the filmed concert including the Bands Irish number one, N17 and HAY WRAP. MRI Distribution handles the CD and DVD for the US market.

Saw Doctors founding band member and guitarist Leo Moran says: “We've played The Melody Tent in Hyannis (Mass.) every August for almost 10 years and every year we'd say we should film the concert in order to show the folks back home what we're up to in the summertime in the States. It's always energetic and enthusiastic and it feels like a primitive ceremony in an amphitheatre or a boxing match. The band loves it and the crowd loves it too!"
