The Answer are four lads hailing from Downpatrick, Northern Ireland. “F*@king stupendous,” wrote Kerrang! of an explosive live show by Northern Ireland based rock quartet The Answer. “Sounds as fresh as any debut album in living memory,” was how they greeted the U.K. release of the group’s first full-length “Rise”, slated for U.S. shores in early ’08. Another reviewer for the magazine said, “Uplifting and authentic, classic rock is safe in the hands of this brilliant young Irish band.” Classic Rock voted The Answer 2005’s Best New UK Band at their prestigious annual awards. They also ranked Rise 3 out of 2006’s 50 Best Albums, calling it, “phenomenal. In short, a world class debut that goes a long way to reclaiming Britain’s blues-rock credibility.”Not bad for four country lads from Downpatrick, County Down, about thirty miles outside Belfast who, according to star-powered lead singer Cormac Neeson, “spent three or four years playing every shit hole we could find” before being signed in the U.K. to esteemed Australian rock label Albert Productions in 2005, famed for the development of rock icons AC/DC Since then, while they continue to blow the roofs off of clubs across the continent, they’ve opened stadium and arena concerts for such heavy-weight acts as The Rolling Stones, The Who, Aerosmith, Deep Purple and Whitesnake. The Answer has also triumphantly headlined tours in Japan, Australia and various corners of Europe, East and West. They are the real deal, passionate about their music, devoid of pretense and, as Neeson has said, “just doing what we do: playing every gig like our lives depended on it.”
