The Animals were “one of the most important bands” in the British Invasion. Whilst The Beatles and Rolling Stones were the headliners, The Animals were the back bone of blues!
With their legacy undeniable, Australia is in for a treat when original members John Steel and Mick Gallagher along with Danny Handley and Scott Whitely bring The Animals live experience down under.
The Animals boast some of the Greatest Songs in popular music history including the Australian #1 hit ‘The House of The Rising Sun’ as well as ‘We’ve Gotta Get Out Of This Place’, ’Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood’, ‘It’s My Life’, ‘Don’t Bring Me Down’ and ‘Boom Boom’ (as featured in the James Bond movie, ‘Skyfall’) to name a few.
“The band has changed, but the songs remain eternal” (The Independent)
