This farewell tour marks the end of an era for the influential rock group that emerged during the British Invasion of the 1960s. The Animals have maintained a significant presence in the rock music landscape for decades, with their blues-infused sound and powerful vocals leaving an indelible mark on music history.

Original member John Steel will be leading the current lineup, ensuring that the authentic spirit of The Animals continues to resonate through their performances. The band’s contribution to rock music has been substantial, with their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame cementing their legacy as one of the most important groups of their generation.

The Australian farewell tour will feature a comprehensive set list that spans their extensive catalogue, offering fans both the hits that defined a generation and deeper cuts that showcase the band’s musical versatility. This promises to be a nostalgic journey through the sounds that helped shape rock music as we know it today.
