The Baby Animals formed in Sydney in 1989. In 2019 they will release their first Greatest Hits record and tour Australia to mark their 30th anniversary.

The new Greatest Hits record will include three new recordings including a cover of Linda Ronstadt’s ‘How Do I Make You’.

“I grew up listening to Linda Ronstadt,” Suze DeMarchi says, “‘How Do I Make You’ is such a great song, and it was right up our alley. Being a guitar band, we punk it up a little bit, and it’s a lot of fun to play live.”

Baby Animals Greatest Hits is due February 15.
