The Answer Tour Dates

• 15th Oct 2009

Capping off a phenomenal year, Northern Irish 4-piece THE ANSWER are set to release their brilliant new single ‘Comfort Zone’ on November the 23rd. This storming ballad has been a crowd favourite throughout the world and a live version of the track shot at SXSW ’08 has been on high rotation on Direct TV US for over a year! The new single version has been completely remixed by renowned UK radio mixer Cenzo Townsend (U2 /Snow Patrol / Florence & the Machine) and is backed up by new and unreleased recordings. Two days later on November the 25th in Manchester, the band will also be embarking on their largest ever UK headline tour, running all the way through to December 14th at Belfast Ulster Hall.

Track-listings for ‘Comfort Zone’ are:

1. Comfort Zone

2. Comfort Zone (acoustic version)

3. Take it easy (exclusive B side recording)

The band have spent almost a whole year touring the globe with AC/DC (encompassing both arenas and then stadiums worldwide and playing to over 2 million rock fans) – “It’s been a fantastic experience playing to huge AC/DC audiences and we can’t wait to hit the road again to do our own headline shows”, says guitarist Paul Mahon. “We’ve been very fortunate to meet the likes of Alice Cooper and Green Day along the way and it’s great to know that they are new fans!” The Answer released their much lauded and critically acclaimed UK top 30 2nd album ‘Everyday Demons’ earlier this year, destroyed Download 09 festival in the summer, downloaded over 280,000 singles as an exclusive iTunes single of the week in the USA and have appeared on both the covers of Kerrang and Total Guitar Magazines.
