The White Animals were formed in 1980 by Dr. Kevin Gray, a resident at Nashville's Vanderbilt Hospital. Originally an acoustic duo with Gray and his guitar teacher, the project took on a life of its own with the addition of guitarist Rich Parks, bassist Steve Boyd, and drummer Ray Crabtree. The quartet formed their own Dread Beat label to release the Nashville Babylon EP in 1981. Produced by "dubmaster" Tim Coats, the disc's mix of pop covers, paisley punk, and dub beats received heavy airplay on several college radio stations.
These are photos from concerts where White Animals played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
