Waters will be touring with Australian guitar legend Geoff Achison, who has been a significant figure in blues and roots music in Australia.
Achison's career, which began under the guidance of Dutch Tilders, has seen him blend blues, soul, funk, and folk into a unique sound that has won fans worldwide.
The tour, named Brush with the Blues and dedicated to the late Jeff Beck, follows a successful 14-show tour in Australia and promises an 'action-packed set stacked with hard-hitting originals alongside timeless roots classics'.
Geoff Achison has also drawn commendation, with Jefferson Airplane/Hot Tuna's Jorma Kaukonen calling him "one of the finest blues guitarists I know with a completely individual style”.
