THE ANSWER, four lads hailing from Downpatrick in Northern Ireland have been busy fulfilling their duties as the opening act for the North American and European legs of AC/DC’s Black Ice World Tour. They finished the 42 show run of the states on January 31st and are currently in Europe to continue on the ‘Black Ice’ tour in support of the release of their new album, ‘Everyday Demons.’
In the last six months the band has appeared in Rolling Stone and Spin Magazine as well as having played on The Late Show with David Letterman.
