About Eric Burdon and The Animals

British Rock Icon Eric Burdon & The Animals ("The House of the Rising Sun")

With his powerful voice and commanding stage presence, Eric Burdon is still as riveting as when he and The Animals were at the forefront of the British Invasion of American radio in the 1960s. Burdon's stirring anthems "The House of the Rising Sun," "We Gotta Get Out of This Place" and "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" resonate still, and Burdon retains the vocal chops to make them sound as urgent and inspiring as they did 50 years ago. There's a good reason he's included on "Rolling Stone"'s list of the "100 Greatest Singers of All Time." Over the years, Burdon has recruited a host of talented musicians to replace the original Animals, so expect a high-energy show of classic hits. Opening for Burdon is American rocker and bluesman Edgar Winter ("Frankenstein," "Free Ride").
