The Answer have a contemporary take of bluesy, riff heavy, hard rock. Raised on a heavy diet of Led Zeppelin, Free, The Who and The Black Crowes, they released their debut EP 'Keep Believin' in July 2005 helping to secure them a place on the successful "New School Of Rock Tour" alongside fellow upcoming rock bands The Sound Explosion and Tokyo Dragons. Hailing from Newcastle and Downpatrick, County Down, Northern Ireland, their debut album 'Rise' tipped the bands for big things from many in the rock music industry.A nomination for best new band by Classic Rock magazine brought The Answer even more exposure. Whilst support from Kerrang and The Sun have resulted in rave reviews and further nominations for Classic Rock Magazine's 'Album Of The Year' and "Best British Newcomer" in the 2006 Kerrang! awards.
