Violent Femmes

In 2016, when Violent Femmes performed 'Gone Daddy Gone' live at Beale Street Music Festival, they were fresh off the release of their latest album, 'We Can Do Anything,' which debuted in March of that year. This marks their first studio album in 15 years after 'Freak Magnet' in 2000. The energy of the crowd in Memphis must have been electric, as the band was known for their dynamic, raw live performances. It's interesting to note that despite their initial rise in the '80s, they maintained a loyal following, showcasing a unique blend of punk and folk influences that resonated across generations. Fans were surely thrilled to hear hits like 'Gone Daddy Gone' live, capturing the essence of their indie rock roots against the vibrant backdrop of Memphis.
