About

Extended Theatre Seated
Featuring The Animals' founder member and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee John Steel alongside Danny Handley, Barney Williams and Norm Helm, Animals and Friends return Brewery Arts!

The enduring influence and breadth of appeal of Animals and Friends and The Animals' music is seen around the world, with The Animals' 1964 debut recently included in Classic Rock magazine's '50 Albums That Built Blues Rock'.

The band have embarked on over a dozen massive UK and world tours tours with special guests including Spencer Davis, Stax, Booker T & The MG's and Blues Brothers guitar legend Steve Cropper, Maggie Bell (Stone The Crows) and the late, great Mick Green (The Pirates, Van Morrison, Paul McCartney, Bryan Ferry) – which were the last shows by the guitarist viewed by many as one of the most influential in music.

Animals and Friends remain a seminal rhythm & blues band who still command great respect internationally amongst their peers as well as from fans of all ages who instinctively respond so enthusiastically to such pivotal songs from The Animals' catalogue such as 'We Gotta Get Out Of This Place', 'Boom Boom', 'Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood', 'Baby, Let Me Take You Home', 'I Put A Spell On You' and the bands' multi-million selling anthem and Number One hit across the world – 'House of The Rising Sun'.
