    VIOLENT FEMMES AND THE TASMANIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA World Premiere Monday 22 & Tuesday 23 January Due to popular demand Mona Foma today announced an extra show for the world premiere of the Violent Femmes performing with the TSO. For two nights only, the Violent Femmes will take their acoustic punk-rock and work with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra to reimagine it as a full orchestra experience. Conducted by Hamish McKeich they’ll perform a long list of cult classics such as Add It Up, Blister In The Sun, Kiss Off, Gone Daddy Gone, American Song and Gimme The Car at The Federation Concert Hall on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 January. “Most rock bands would blow off an orchestra with the amplifiers, but for these two shows we’re prepared to back off on the volume and actually play almost at the same volume as the orchestra musicians and create a more unified approach, “ said Brian Ritchie. The Violent Femmes were formed in 1981 as an acoustic band playing on the streets of Milwaukee. Their main influences at that time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground. Enduring a couple of hiatuses throughout their 36-plus year career, the band — original members Gordon Gano and Brian Ritchie, along with drummer John Sparrow have been performing steadily since reuniting again in 2013. The TSO’s performance with the Violent Femmes represents another innovative collaboration for the orchestra, which in 2017 alone has seen sold out concerts with vocal star Kate Miller-Heidke, a Dark MOFO collaboration with Norwegian metal band Ulver, an original show with comedy trio Tripod and a sold out concert with ARIA award-winning and multi-platinum artist Megan Washington.

  • Violent Femmes Hotel Last Resort Bio FINAL 2
    VIOLENT FEMMES HOTEL LAST RESORT bio Gordon Gano: lead vocal, guitar Brian Ritchie: acoustic bass guitar, baritone guitar, vocal, percussion John Sparrow: BBQ, snare, tom, percussion, vocal Blaise Garza: baritone, contrabass and sopranino saxophones, vocal, piano, harmonium, theremin, percussion Violent Femmes 10th studio album, HOTEL LAST RESORT, resides among the groundbreaking band’s finest work, simultaneously refining and redefining their one-of-a-kind take on American music, mingling front porch folk, post punk, spiritual jazz, country blues, avant garde minimalism and golden age rock ‘n’ roll into something still altogether their own. Founded and fronted of course by singer/ guitarist Gordon Gano and acoustic bass guitarist Brian Ritchie, the Milwaukee-born combo remains as warm, wise and weird as ever before, with such new favorites as “Another Chorus” and “Everlasting You” continuing to mine the vast range of ideas, melodic complexity and organic sonic craftsmanship that has characterized the band’s body of work since their landmark self-titled 1983 debut. “I think it’s probably the best [album] we’ve made since HALLOWED GROUND,” Ritchie says. “We didn’t really know that we had something to say, but it turns out that the songs are really good and we were able to sink our teeth into them and come up with something which is just as good as anything we’ve ever done. I’m even a little bit surprised myself.” Violent Femmes are undeniably one of the most inventive and original bands of this or any other era, constantly pushing forward with their singular blend of folk and punk, sarcasm and spirituality.

QUOTE(S) OF THE DAY “Art is a kind of innate drive that seizes a human being and makes him its instrument. The artist is not a person endowed with free will who seeks his own ends, but one who allows art to realize its purpose through him.” – Carl Jung “Writing has laws of perspective, of light and shade, just as painting does, or music. If you are born knowing them, fine. If not, learn them. Then rearrange the rules to suit yourself.” – Truman Capote “You have to know how to accept rejection and reject acceptance.” – Ray Bradbury “There's something in the human personality which resents things that are clear, and conversely, something which is attracted to puzzles, enigmas, and allegories.” – Stanley Kubrick “With the gift of listening comes the gift of healing.” – Catherine de Hueck “I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.” – Albert Einstein VIDEO(S) OF THE DAY Natural Beauty The Arts Page | Milwaukee PBS Them Coulee Boys Share New Song MIDNIGHT MANIFESTOS BroadwayWorld.com Violent Femmes return to busking roots in new made-in-Milwaukee music video Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Also Looking Into the Loving Abyss With Gordon Gano Brick by Brick | Psychology Today Yanay Zohar | Finally, everything is about you* CreativeMornings/Berlin Wisconsin artists and arts organizations, do you have video that you’d like us to consider sharing as the Wisconsin Arts News Video of the Day?

These modifications come at a time when the growth trajectory of Milwaukee Rep has motivated Artistic Director Mark Clements, Executive Director Chad Bauman and the Board of Trustees to examine the position of the theater as a vital agent of positive change in Milwaukee and beyond. “Milwaukee Rep is having a moment. Performances are selling-out, outstanding new plays have been created in Milwaukee for Milwaukee, and our Subscriber and donor bases are at decade highs,” said Executive Director Chad Bauman. “Since completing our last strategic plan ahead of schedule we knew it was time to re-evaluate our goals. Through this strategic planning process, we looked at all the changes in the non-profit theater industry through a lens of opportunity, leading us to double down on our mission of artistic excellence and civic engagement. Our work is representative of Milwaukee’s rich diversity, and with our new brand identity we aim to communicate we are a theater that is welcoming and inspirational to all.” Milwaukee Rep’s new strategic plan calls for the following: Address the challenges of the Patty & Jay Baker Theater Complex.

  • Teenage-Angst Revisited
    # 2000/14 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2000/14/teenage-angst-revisited Ein Selbstversuch mit Violent Femmes Teenage-Angst revisited Nur ein paar Alben trennen die Leiden der Jugend von der Altersdepression. Ein Selbstversuch mit Violent Femmes. Eigentlich wusste man es ja schon immer: Es gibt nichts Ekligeres als fettbäuchige Glatzenträger, die selig grinsend und Wunderkerzen schwingend bei einer Golden-Oldie- Summernight zu den Hits ihrer Jugend in die Plastikbecher tränen. Und doch kann es passieren: Man besucht nach fast zwei Dekaden noch einmal ein Konzert einstiger Jugendheroen. Stadionrock im Selbstversuch? Naja, ganz so schlimm ist es zum Glück bei den Violent Femmes nie geworden, obwohl sie 1994 in Woodstock schon vor 300 000 Zuschauern auftraten. Aber mit einem typischen Hallenkonzert, einem mit lausiger Akustik und lauwarmem scheißteurem Bier in Plastikbechern musste man mindestens rechnen. Immerhin ist es eine anerkannte Tatsache, dass, nach fast einem halben Jahrhundert Rock'n'Roll-Geschäft, Alter und Rockmusik einander nicht mehr ausschließen, sondern im Gegenteil zusammengehören wie die Rolling Stones und der VW Golf. Was britische Musikzeitungen bei anstehenden Tourneen schon zu solch adäquaten Überschriften wie »Get Your Wheel-Chairs Out« animierte. Das rollingstoneske Stadionrock-Trauma hatte ich zum Glück schon in frühester Jugend, und es wirkte so nachhaltig, dass ich bisher nie mehr in Versuchung geriet, so etwas noch einmal auszuprobieren. Stattdessen wandte ich mich Bands zu, die von den Massen geschmäht wurden. Diesen Vorgaben folgend, war ich 1984 im Ratinger Hof dabei, als die Violent Femmes ihre erste Europa-Tour absolvierten. Nach der Veröffentlichung ihres Debüt-Albums, »Violent Femmes,« das 1983 als Meisterwerk gefeiert wurde, galt die Band ein Jahr lang als das hippe »andere« Ding.

  • Violent Femmes: Decades of Disorganized Music
    Violent Femmes: Decades of Disorganized Music Violent Femmes were founded in 1980 by bassist/multi- instrumentalist Brian Ritchie and drummer Victor De Lorenzo. The name is a contradiction in terms, “Violent” being self-explanatory and “Femmes” being Milwaukee slang for wimp. The rhythm section added high school singer/songwriter Gordon Gano in 1981. Gano and Ritchie had previously performed together at Gano’s National Honor Society induction ceremony, where they caused a near riot. Gano was expelled from the Society and suspended from high school for this outrage. One of the only stable aspects of the band is their aversion to rehearsal. Due to this they would take the music to the streets in an attempt to hone it and earn some spare change. It was on one of these occasions that they were spotted by the Pretenders. Chrissie Hynde and the gang were so amused by the Violent Femmes antics that they invited the band to open the show for them. The hometown Milwaukee audience received the Femmes with unanimous booing. However by the end of the set the Femmes had converted approximately 50% of the audience to their cause. Many years later Brian Ritchie encountered Hynde when the Femmes and Pretenders shared the bill at a radio concert. She said, “Oh, you’re still around.” The Femmes borrowed $10,000 from Victor De Lorenzo’s dad to record their legendary first album in 1982. Slash Records in Los Angeles was the only label to offer them a deal with the amazing advance of $0. The band accepted the deal and started on the predictable round of world tours, recording, more world tours, nervous breakdowns, band members quitting, solo albums, regrouping, more touring, divorces, more crackups, dropped from record deals, new deals, more touring, record company going bankrupt, lawsuits, etc.
