Mad Ferritt are the definitive Oasis tribute band consisting of a group of musicians from Waterford.
The aim of the band is to put together a tribute show that mimics the raw power of an Oasis live show in their heyday.
The lads pay particular detail to re-creating the famous Oasis Wall of Sound.
Following their sell out shows in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022, 2023 and 2024, the lads make a long awaited return to the Theatre Royal Waterford, where they will blend their regular full electric show with the famous Oasis ‘MTV Unplugged’ set list that was broadcast back in 1996 with acoustic versions of Oasis anthems, accompanied by a full 14 piece band with string and brass sections.
