Bruce Watson (born Bruce William Watson, 11 March 1961, Timmins, Ontario, Canada) is a Canadian guitarist most famous for being a founding member of the Scottish based rock band, Big Country.

In the summer of 2007 he played in The Skids who had reformed to play two gigs in Dunfermline prior to a set on the Main Stage at T-in-the-Park.

Also in 2007, to celebrate 25 years of Big Country, he has reunited with founder members Tony Butler (now lead vocalist for the first time), and Mark Brzezicki to embark on a tour of the UK with dates in Scotland and England. Band co-founder/vocalist/guitarist Stuart Adamson died in December, 2001. Big Country are rumoured to be going into the studio and record a new album.

In September 2007 Bruce started working at Rosyth Dockyard carrying out tests for Legionella.
