Fingals’ Cave Podcast is back! This time featuring keyboard player Harry Waters! Son of Roger Waters and as we all know was in his touring band from 2002-2016. Harry talks about his love of Jazz, Nintendo and what’s it like playing to click tracks and much more! It’s a really wonderful interview – do check it out!

We start the new year with another wonderful guest, who is a musician, composer and one of the most versatile artists we had on the show so far. He has been a crucial part on every single Roger Waters tour between 2002 and 2016 and if his last name is familiar, that’s because he is also the son of Roger Waters. We talk enthusiastically about music in general, playing to click tracks, his last shows with Roger Waters at Coachella 2016, his excitement about Chick Corea and his programming work for a Nintendo game. Harry played many show with LES CLAYPOOL and reveals how much he loves the Album ANIMALS. We very much respected his wish not to ask him any personal questions about his father so expect a in depth talk about music.
