It’s been 30 years since Baby Animals burst onto our scene with their iconic eight-times platinum ARIA Award-winning self-titled debut album. I was just 11 years old when it dropped, and I was sure Suze DeMarchi was the coolest woman on the planet. I hit play on that album again today and all the admiration I had for the band came flooding back from those first chords of “Rush You.” How has this album remained timeless through three decades? If you haven’t listened for a while, do yourself a favour. Then buy yourself some tickets for the band’s 30th Anniversary tour.
These shows promise all your favourite cuts from that killer debut, including “Early Warning,” Painless,” and “One Word.” I’ve seen the band play a few times over the past few years, and rest assured they’ve still got it. These shows will be epic.
Baby Animals will hit the road with Kingswood and stop at several capitals and major regional centres this winter. Check them out at the following shows.
