American rock band vocalist and singer-songwriter Eric Burdon has an estimated net worth of $5 million. He is best recognized as one of the members of the bands "The Animals" and "War." He ranked #57 on the list of The 100 Greatest Singers of All Time by Rolling Stone.

Some of The Animals' most popular singles include Monterey, Sky Pilot, The House of the Rising Sun, Bring It On Home to Me, It's My Life, See See Rider, Baby Let Me Take You Home, Don't Bring Me Down, and We Gotta Get out of This Place. In 1966, the group was reformed and renamed to Eric Burdon and The Animals. 

After "The Animals," Burdon became a part of the funk band "War." The group's debut album, Eric Burdon Declares "War," spawned the single "Tobacco Road" and "Spill The Wine". Eventually, the group disbanded, but in 2008, the band members were united after 37 years.

In 1971, Burdon started pursuing a solo career in music. In 1980, his first album, Darkness Darkness, was released. Eventually, his career came into hiatus and by April 2004, his comeback album titled My Secret Life was released. The album contained a total of 16 recordings. It was followed by the release of his other albums, Soul of a Man, Eric Burdon & the Greenhornes, and Til Your River Runs Dry.
