The Answer Announce October UK Tour Dates & Tickets

The Answer, the award-winning Irish rockers whose emotive music and fearsome live reputation have won them a dedicated international following, have announced a UK tour for October 2011.

The Answer released thier first DVD/CD package on May 23rd. Titled ‘412 Days Of Rock’n’Roll’, the two-disc set contains a host of special features, including an hour-long documentary detailing the band’s 118 shows as Special Guests to AC/DC on their ‘Black Ice’ World Tour – a tour (2008/2009) that took in over three million fans in 30 different countries.
 
As the title implies, this extensive run of shows – in stadiums ranging from ten to 90,000 – saw The Answer on the road for a full 412 days, a non-stop period of activity taking in as many headline shows as they could play, two nights at New York’s famous Madison Square Garden, TV appearances including the David Letterman show, radio sessions and press interviews as could be reasonably fitted in.

The Answer played a special one-off show at the Borderline in London in May which marked the launch of the ‘412 Days…’ package, as well as providing the perfect opportunity for the Downpatrick rockers – now 10 years in the saddle – to showcase new songs from their forthcoming third studio album, produced by the Grammy-nominated Chris ‘Frenchie’ Smith (The Datsuns, Young Heart Attack) and currently being mixed by Chris Sheldon (Foo Fighters, Feeder, etc.). An Autumn release is being planned preceded by festival appearances in the summer.
