Violent Femmes

As the culmination of their fall tour, the Violent Femmes will play a special 2 nights “Evening with the Violent Femmes” in their hometown of Milwaukee where they will perform their first two albums in their entirety.

Violent Femmes formed in 1981 as an acoustic punk band playing on the streets of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Their main influences at that time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground. Their goal was to rock harder than any other acoustic act on the planet.
