Violent Femmes Return For Good Things
Over their awe-inspiring 40+ year career, Milwaukee icons VIOLENT FEMMES have had an undeniable impact on the broad history and landscape of alternative music. From performing as an acoustic punk band on the streets of Wisconsin, inspired by Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground, VIOLENT FEMMES would go on to themselves inspire the likes of a wide array of artists, including Pink, John Cusack, Mark Morris, The Smiths, The Pixies and countless others.
Releasing their self-titled debut album in 1983, Violent Femmes would go on to attain a platinum RIAA certification, as well as hit double platinum status in Australia for their first ever full length release. Going on to release ten studio albums across their enduring career so far, VIOLENT FEMMES have also become a mainstay of festivals, clubs and theatres in over 20 countries worldwide, with their raw sound and honest lyricism boasting a rare multi-generational appeal alongside an electrifying stage presence that truly has to be seen to be believed.
