"Key shattering Boogie Woogie" – this is how the newspaper "The Guardian" described Ben Waters after a concert at Ronnie Scott's, which is known for its energetic performances and powerful interpretations of early boogie-woogie and rock 'n' roll.

Waters always plays the music he loves, the music of his heroes Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis, Amos Milburn, Little Richard, Ian Stewart and a host of other pianists. This is the music that makes him happy! That's why he dropped out of school to go on tour with Shakin Stevens. That's why he has dedicated himself to touring the world for 35 years, a dedication that is not about fame, money or popularity, but only about the love of music!

Funnily enough, this indifference to fame and focus on the music he loves has led Waters to work with some of the biggest names in the world.

Jools Holland, Shakin Stevens, Cher, The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Imelda May, Mick Hucknall, Johnny Depp and many more.
