Speaking about the Guinness Amplify Live, Lisa Fitzsimons, Guinness Marketing Manager said; 'We are delighted with the response from bands and musicians. Over 800 talented musicians, from an impressive mix of genres, uploaded their music to the site. We were taken aback by the standard and quality of the music. We are really looking forward to Guinness Amplify Live stages kicking off next week when we will see hundreds of great acts take to the stage in pubs across Ireland over 5 weekends around Ireland and Northern Ireland.'
