Violent Femmes

In June 2018, during their performance at Arroyo Secco in Pasadena, Violent Femmes showcased their iconic blend of folk-punk sounds. At this time, they were riding the wave of their latest album, "Hotel Last Resort," which dropped just a year earlier in 2019. The album, produced by the legendary Ross Robinson, marked a significant evolution in their sound, blending the raw energy of their earlier work with more polished production. This live recording captures the essence of their dynamic stage presence, which has drawn fans for decades. Fun fact: the Femmes' self-titled debut has become a staple in alternative music, and their enduring popularity shows how they’ve maintained a loyal fan base while continuing to innovate. It's a testament to their resilience and artistry!
