Watershed formed in 1987 still stands as one of South Africas Top Pop Rock bands .This multi-platinum selling band have released 6 studio albums so far, along with a greatest hits album during their 23 year career, as well as receiving 2 SAMA awards for best pop album and a SAMA nomination for best adult contemporary album in 2019. They are also multiple winners of SA's best band award by People Magazine.
Watershed, one of SA’s most well-loved bands, were asked to participate in the European tribute album to one of the world’s biggest 80’s pop outfits, Depeche Mode!
They have put together the track " Never let me down "that is a current, 2022 update of the original Depeche Mode, which retains the essence of the 80’s smash hit, . The energy Watershed create in the production and the vocal delivery paired with Botes' edgy electric guitars, make this a song that should top the charts… again!
Not shy of hits of their own such as Indigo Girl, Letters, Undone and many more, Watershed join the ranks of Alphaville and Yello in putting together this incredible tribute album to the late great Andy Fletcher and Depeche Mode.
“We identified the big bits and made them bigger, but as with any cover we do, we always want the original feeling and intention of the song to pull through. We then threw everything into the production to overlay it with what we think is our Watershed trademark sound”, says Craig Hinds, Watershed frontman and song writer. “In my most influential years I was listening to Depeche Mode and this song was always a favourite. I love the harmonies and the simplicity of the melody - which is what I believe makes good songs great. Without a doubt one of my formative musical memories - the sound of my youth and influential beyond my imagining- playing this song now is really coming full circle for me and such a privilege!”
HARBOUR
Eighteen years after the release of their debut album ‘In the meantime’, Watershed have put together their 6th studio album ‘Harbour'. This South African music success story has had a string of radio singles that way surpasses the years they have been around. 'Indigo girl’, ‘Fine way’ and ‘Letters’ mentioning a few. The band has toured and had major success in the big European territories performing alongside some of the biggest names in world music, such as U2, Peter Gabriel, Bob Geldof, The Corrs and The Cranberries.
