The Saw Doctors have teamed up with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra for a new version of their hit song Same Oul’ Town.
Davy Carton and Leo Moran of the veteran Tuam act performed the number, the title track of the band’s 1996 album, with the RTÉ CO on last Saturday’s Tommy Tiernan Show on RTÉ One under the baton of conductor Gavin Murphy and will now release it as a single.
Murphy previously arranged Tolü Makay’s version of the Saw Doctor’s hit N17 with the orchestra in 2020.
Speaking about working with the RTÉ CO, Carton said, “It was an amazing experience to be backed by the RTE Concert Orchestra. Without a doubt, the highlight of my career.”
