Violent Femmes

On May 9, 2019, the Violent Femmes delivered a stirring live performance on Austin City Limits, a venue synonymous with iconic musical moments. This concert came shortly after the release of their album "Hotel Last Resort," which they dropped in 2019, showcasing their unique blend of punk-infused folk rock. By this time in their career, the band had reinvented themselves numerous times since their explosive debut in the 1980s. Interestingly, the energy at the concert reflected their enduring appeal; despite their lengthy journey and various lineup changes, they still captivated audiences with a blend of nostalgia and innovation. The fact that they closed their set with a classic tune underscores not just their rich history but also their ability to connect with fans, old and new. It’s as if each note was a reminder of their wild, rebellious spirit that started it all.
