One of the most powerful and cutting edge female fronted rock acts of the 70's and 80's was the band HEART. Ann and Nancy Wilson set the standard for future female artists, opening the door for women to be a part of a predominately male run music business, and creating some of the greatest and most recognized songs in music history.
 Recreating the passion and power of an institution like HEART isn't an easy task for a tribute band, which probably explains why there are less than a dozen Heart tributes currently working in the United States. The Bad Animals are one of the select few that capture the raw energy of a live HEART concert.
The Bad Animals are made up of 6 of the most accomplished and recognized musicians from the region: Bobby Sue Jones on lead Vocals, Joelle Negaard on Lead Vocals and Guitar,  Tim Davis on drums, Aaron Carlson on Bass and Vocals, Leni DiMancari on Guitar & Vocals and Lewis Sego on Keyboards.
 In concert, the band is incredible, with Bobby covering the power of Ann Wilson and Joelle capturing the subtle and softer side of Nancy Wilson, creating breathtaking harmonies. The band has been touring for 5 years now and has become a 'Must See' Act at outdoor Festivals, Nightclubs and Casinos. Their show spans 3 Decades of Multi platinum HEART Music, performing their Chart Topping Singles, Rock Classics and Arena Rock Power Ballads.
 The Bad Animals were nominated by the Minnesota Music Academy in 2006 for a Minnesota Music Awards for Best Tribute Band and Best Cover Band. The Band have been dubbed one of the hottest Tribute bands on the circuit, and give an energetic performance capturing the Power & Energy of HEART.
 Catch the Bad Animals this year on the Brigade 2010 Tour!
