Danielle Whalebone is the fearless leader of indie-rock outfit Animal Hands. She, along with the band’s other killer players, celebrated the release of their self-titled EP last year at the Cherry Bar. Lindsay Gravina (Rowland S. Howard, Cosmic Psychos, Magic Dirt) was on hand to produce the EP, which not only excited locally but picked up airplay on L.A. talkback radio. ‘Roaring Girle’ is the band’s latest gem. The track is a dedication to Mary Frith, a notorious pickpocket in the 1600s. Nicknamed ‘Moll Cutpurse’, she is widely considered to be the original Riot Grrrl. Music Man Megastore, Bendigo – September 19; The Springs Hotel, Waubra – September 26; and The Eastern, Ballarat – September 27.
