Animal Souls

is an indie music collective based in Abbotsford, BC. The group is headed by bassist/producer Michael Fisher and features some of the best players in the Fraser Valley.

​ Originally from Burlington, Ontario Michael has called British Columbia home since 1983 and over the years he has played in many cover & original bands, managed and promoted artists and provided live sound services at local clubs and festivals.

When the Covid pandemic hit and Michael was 'retired' from a 27 year career at Live Nation, he called on some of his musical mates to help him record a 10-track album 'Wisdom of Crowds' which was released in August 2021. The album was a mix of old songs re-imagined from a late 80's stash of 4-track demos along with some newly written songs.

​ Animal Souls have since released 5 singles; 'Lessons of Love' (Jan 2022), 'Soul Dance Redux' (May 2022), 'Travelin' Bug' (Jul 2022), 'Midnight Sky (feat. Annika Catharina) (Sep 2022) and 'Home Sweet Home (Dec 2022). On February 17, Animal Souls will release another single 'Tell Me Why' followed by 'On My Way' (release date TBD). ​

Michael also plays bass in the alternative rock band 3rd Deck, also based in Abbotsford, who released their debut self-titled 5-song EP in March 2022 and are currently in the studio working on a follow-up EP.
