(dmk) Violent Femmes are preparing to hit the road later this week for their fall tour and have they have revealed the special support acts that will be joining them for the dates.
Ranging from singer-songwriters Elizabeth Moen, Kevin Hearn, and Rick Berlin, to Appalachian folk punk artist Black Guy Fawkes, genre-defying hard rock dance duo Quintron and Miss Pussycat, and pioneering soul-shoegaze-alternative rockers The Veldt, this menagerie of talent will perfectly accentuate the Femmes performance as they play their debut record from cover to cover as part of its 40th anniversary.
The Fall 2023 Tour, which kicks off October 3 in Milwaukee, WI, is a continuation of the Platinum-selling band's uber successful Spring 2023 Tour, which sold out entirely.
