CORMAC NEESON

These shots were taken at the liverpool summer pops,its about time this city had a decent ROCK venue for ROCK bands to play,to match Manchester and Birmingham,maybe if this city realised there was more to Liverpool than the Beatles,and did not fill the first five rows of seats of certain venues with members of the city council, footballers and the like, and allocated them to true fans it would be a start.

The Answer are four lads hailing from Downpatrick in Northern Ireland.

Raised on a heady diet of Led Zeppelin, Free, The Who and The Black Crowes, The Answers contemporary take of bluesy, riff heavy hard rock is starting to turn heads. The band spent last year touring with Alterbridge, The Darkness, Deep Purple, Sound Explosion and The Tokyo Dragons and making their debut album. At a recent London gig none other than Jimmy Page stood and watched their set from side of stage and theyve already played at a Phil Lynott memorial benefit gig in Dublin as Lynotts mother is a big fan. So big in fact that she allowed Waters to be the first since Lynotts death to open his bass case and play the revered black iconic bass axe! Its the same black bass that appears in the video to Keep Believin.

Their debute album 'RISE' was recorded at Monnow Valley in Wales, Albert Studios in London and at the legendary Olympic Studios in Barnes.
