Live music

Violent Femmes, formed in 1981 as an acoustic punk band playing on the streets of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, will perform at The Show at Agua Caliente Resort Casino Spa in Rancho Mirage on Friday, December 11, 2026, at 8:00 PM. Their main influences at the time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground, and their goal was to rock harder than any other acoustic act on the planet. Their eponymous debut album became the first and only album in Billboard history to enter the charts with a platinum certification, eight years after its release. Over the following three decades, the band became a mainstay of festivals, clubs, and theaters in more than 20 countries.
