Info zu New Horizon

Um die irische Rockmusik in einem glänzenden Licht erscheinen zu lassen, haben THE ANSWER ständig kommerzielle und von den Kritikern hoch gelobte Alben geliefert. Die Band war die letzten 8 Jahre ständig dabei um die ganze Welt zu touren und zeigten dabei ihre hervorragenden Livequalitäten – darunter 2 Jahre als Main Support für AC/DC vor über 2 Millionen Menschen, zahlreiche Festivals rund um den Globus, Supportslots bei den Rolling Stones, Whitesnake und Wolfmother und unzählige Headlinershows.

Seit dem Release ihres 3.Albums Ende 2011, besitzt die Band ein neues Management, eine Booking Agentur, hat ein neues Record Label an Bord und sie gingen Ende 2012 mit dem Ex Little Angels Sänger Toby Jepson ins Studio. Die neue Platte, 'New Horizon' wird das 4. Studio Album sein und wurde von der Rockikone Mike Fraser (AC/DC, Metallica) gemixt.

Die Band fühlt sich auch geehrt und privilegiert, dass sich Storm Thorgerson und sein Team für das Artwork verantwortlich zeichneten. Storm arbeitete an den letzten Ideen für das Album Cover noch kurz vor seinem Ableben.

Das Quartett aus Downpatrick besteht aus Cormac Neeson (vocals), Paul Mahon (guitar), Micky Waters (bass) and James Heatley (drums).

Cormac Neeson: 'Wir sind zurück, und das auf eine große Art. Unsere Liebe für den Rock ´n Roll ist immer noch frisch wie ein Schluck aus dem Lagan (der Fluss, der durch Belfast fließt) und wir sind davon überzeugt, dass das bis dato unser absolut bestes Album ist. Wir können es kaum erwarten das Material live zu spielen!'

The Answer
Blues-influenced hard rock band the Answer first came together in 2000 when guitarist Paul Mahon, then 18 years old and living in Northern Ireland, decided to put together a group with the help of a friend, bassist Micky Waters. Waters was already a veteran of the Belfast club circuit, having played in several cover bands, and Mahon had been given a crash course in the nuts and bolts of the music business by his father, who played trumpet in a long-running Irish show band. Mahon recruited James Heatley to play drums, Cormac Neeson signed on as lead singer, and the Answer were born.

After several months of rehearsing and writing material, the Answer started playing live gigs in 2001, and in 2002 they landed a prestigious gig as the opening act at Ireland's Witness Festival. In 2005, the Answer signed a record deal with the U.K. branch of Albert Productions, and in June 2006 their first album, Rise, arrived in shops. Rise earned enthusiastic reviews in Kerrang! and Classic Rock and chalked up respectable sales in the U.K. while becoming a legitimate hit in Japan. After sharing bills with everyone from Deep Purple and Paul Rodgers to the Rolling Stones and the Who, the Answer reissued Rise in 2007 with a bonus disc including a handful of tracks the group had issued as download-only singles.

In 2008 they continued their busy schedule with shows at the Isle of Wight Festival and opening for influential Australian rock outfit AC/DC on the European leg of their Black Ice world tour. Between the two they managed to retreat to L.A. and work on sessions for their sophomore release, Everyday Demons, which came out in 2009. They ended the year with a headlining tour in the U.K., before they began work on their third album in early 2010. The following year the four-piece released a DVD of their live performances on tour with AC/DC titled 412 Days of Rock 'n' Roll, and swiftly followed it up with the studio album Revival. Their fourth record, New Horizon, was released in September 2013, and just 18 months later, the band had recorded and issued their fifth, Raise a Little Hell, in March 2015. Following a U.S. tour in support of the album, the band's singer/lyricist returned to welcome a new son who was born three months premature. Neeson and his wife were able to bring their son home only after four harrowing months in hospital, an experience that informed the band's next album, Solas, released in autumn of 2016.
