The Upright Animals turned in a rocking set on the last day of the Play:STL festival. As always, lead singer Jamie Irwin executed a strong performance on the mic, while the Peters brothers brought all the Guitar Hero action. Bill Newmann on bass brought the funk groove as Moises Padilla on drums set the foundation of the five-piece. The late-afternoon performance on the East-facing stage came with all the heat and backlighting one would expect, but as always the Animals were fun to shoot. Just a few snaps from their set.
