Violent Femmes celebrate 45 years with a tour that channels the unruly acoustic edge that helped define folk punk. Expect a career spanning set built around staples like Blister in the Sun and Add It Up, plus deep tracks and longtime favorites, delivered with the same street corner spark that first took hold in Milwaukee. Formed in 1981, the band shook up alternative music with a self titled debut that went platinum without ever appearing on the Billboard Top 200, blending folk grit, punk urgency, and big sing along moments. Their influence continues and their audience remains loyal, with Blister in the Sun recently featured in the Netflix series Four Seasons. This anniversary run salutes bold songwriting, raw energy, and the communal shout that has followed them for decades.
