VIOLENT FEMMES

Live at The Catalyst, Santa Cruz, CA; September 19, 2003. Previously uncirculated. Very good soundboard.

And… how about some Violent Femmes this Halloween?

“What the Femmes are,” says bassist Brian Ritchie, “and I think we always have been, is a repository for American roots music. Most people think of us as a kind of rock band but we’re a lot more than that…” In March 2016, Violent Femmes released their ninth studio album, We Can Do Anything – the group’s first studio album since 2000’s Freak Magnet.
