German Hard Rock/Metal label Metalapolis Records will release the second album from Maverick from Northern Ireland on August 28^th, 2016. The record is called ‘Big Red‘ and has guest performances by Jakob Samuel (voc, The Poodles) and Kane Roberts (guit., ex Alice Cooper). Maverick also will perform as backing band for Kane Roberts at the H.e.a.t. Festival in Ludwigsburg, Germany at the end of November.

Maverick are five musicians from Belfast/Northern Ireland who have set out to forge a unique brand of melodic hard rock that incorporates their favourite elements of metal and old school rock with emphasis on big hooks, melody and great riffs. Since their inception in August 2012 they have always strived to entertain as a live act and stand out from the rest. The first album was the EP ‘Talk’s Cheap‘ which was self-released in 2013 and caught the attention of German label Massacre Records. They released their first full length album ‘Quid Pro Quo‘ in 2014. After the release they went out on the road together with The Poodles for a three-week tour in Europe, which brought them to six different countries. More support shows have been played for bands like Y&T, Tigertailz and Faster Pussycat.
