Violent Femmes are in Auckland for a sold-out two-night stand at the St James Theatre. Although the trio is American, hailing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, they have always been more popular in this part of the planet. The band is about to release a new album titled We Can Do Anything which marks their first collection of new material since 2000's Freak Magnet.
