Violent Femmes

Violent Femmes are playing The Factory at Chesterfield, bringing their acoustic-punk sound back to their midwest roots. Expect a set that spans their four-decade career, likely touching on classics from their self-titled debut and cuts from more recent albums. Gordon Gano’s distinctive vocals and Brian Ritchie’s bass are still the core of their live show. This Violent Femmes show on Saturday, September 19, 2026, is a chance to see a band that has consistently charted their own course. The Factory is a modern space, and this will be a straightforward rock concert experience. Fans of alternative music with a folk edge will appreciate their enduring presence.
