Violent Femmes

By July 2018, the Violent Femmes were riding high on their eclectic legacy, having released their most recent album, 'Hotel Last Resort,' just a year prior. This album marks a significant point in their career, showcasing a blend of their iconic punk-folk sound mixed with more mature themes. Interestingly, the band has a knack for capturing the raw energy of live performances, and this video from The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory is no exception. It not only highlights their hits but also the crowd's infectious enthusiasm, reflecting their longstanding connection with audiences. Fun fact: the Femmes have been known to weave in and out of genres, but their unmistakable sound has remained a staple since their self-titled debut album in 1983. Watching them perform 'Blister in the Sun' live really showcases how timeless their music is.
