About Me

UNIVERSAL REMEDY are a 4-piece melody based power-pop/rock act from Lisburn, Northern Ireland. Since forming in 2004 the band has moved from being a solid though very capable opening act to one that has the ability of captivating any audience making them worthy of topping any bill! Their well thought out live shows are entertaining and energetic to say the least and when combined with their abilty to churn out crowd pleaser after crowd pleaser they really do leave a lasting impression. UNIVERSAL REMEDY have already established a loyal and evergrowing fanbase spanning the country which is testament to the sort of impact they are having and considering the aura that comes across when you go to watch them is "lets all have a party" it's not hard to understand why!! No matter what genre of music you prefer you will find it difficult to dislike this band and whats certain is you will definatley go home with a smile on your face and humming their memorable melodies for days!!
