The Violent Femmes – June 11th – Denver Botanic Gardens
Monday’s Violent Femmes show at The Botanic Gardens was a bit of a departure from the typical acts that play the idyllic venue. The Femmes burst onto the scene in the early 80’s when they released their now classic eponymous album that birthed many of the songs the band is so well known for. Their Punk influenced sound resonated then as much as it does now and somehow it worked at the gardens despite the fact that the crowd is more used to band’s like The Gypsy Kings or Bruce Hornsby.
