Violent Femmes

Violent Femmes, the pioneering folk punk trio hailing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, have been crafting their unique, jittery, and darkly comical sound since their formation in 1980. Founded by guitarist and vocalist Gordon Gano, bassist Brian Ritchie, and drummer Victor De Lorenzo, the band's name itself is a contradiction in terms, reflecting their genre-defying music. With a career spanning over four decades, Violent Femmes have become a pillar of the American underground movement, known for their powerfully catchy tunes and neurotic energy. Their iconic track "Blister in the Sun" is just one of the many gems in their discography that has left an indelible mark on music. Catch them live on their upcoming tour dates for an unforgettable performance.
