The Animals

Explanation:

The Animals was a musical band that emerged in the 60s in Newcastle upon Tyne, in the United Kingdom.

The band's original line-up was: Hilton Valentinem on guitar, Alan Price on keyboard, Chas Chandler on bass, John Steel on drums and Eric Burdon as vocalist and group leader.

"The House of the Rising Sun" is possibly the best known song of the group.
