Violent Femmes formed in 1981 as an acoustic punk band playing on the streets of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Their main influences at that time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground. Their goal was to rock harder than any other acoustic act on the planet. After being rejected for an audition by a local nightclub, the Femmes set up outside a Pretenders gig and began to play. Pretenders’ lead singer Chrissie Hynde asked them to open that night’s show, which gave the young band a publicity boost and caught the attention of Richard Hell, who invited the Femmes to open for him in NYC. A rave review in the New York Times eventually led to a record deal, which in turn spawned worldwide touring. Violent Femmes 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 ensuing three decades, the Femmes became a mainstay of festivals, clubs, and theaters in more than 20 countries worldwide. MTV’s “Unplugged” show was inspired by the Femmes, although they never actually appeared on it. Their raw sound and honest lyrical perspective has been cited as an influence by artists as diverse as Pink, Keith Urban, The Smiths, The Pixies, John Cusack, Mark Morris, and Wim Wenders. More than 40 years into their careers, Violent Femmes continue to attract young audiences on tour, create lasting music, and inspire people of all ages.

Juanes at Blue Note Napa

  • 850 Bordeaux Way Napa, CA, 94558 United States (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Born and raised in Medellín, Colombia, Juanes is unquestionably Latin Rock’s leading global ambassador and champion for social change. Hailed by TIME as “one of the 100 Most-Influential People in the World,” Juanes is the only artist holding TWO of Billboard’s”Top-5 Latin Pop Songs of All-Time,” has 13 #1 U.S. singles to his credit, dozens of groundbreaking Spanish language television appearances and has collected a staggering TWENTY-NINE combined GRAMMY & Latin Grammy Awards (from a record-setting 49 nominations for a solo artist). Known for his distinctive sound that fuses a deep love of rock & pop music with smartly crafted, multi-layered songwriting and a deep reverence for the traditional folk and other indigenous rhythms of Colombia and Latin America, Juanes has sold millions of records around the world On his 2021 “ORIGEN,” and its matching standout documentary film, Juanes passionately returned to his earliest guitar-driven rock roots in order to share a scintillating collection that reimagines some of the most important songs and artists that shaped his own early musical vision. Upon its release, Origen was praised by Rolling Stone as “A Masterpiece... an exquisite album that transcends beyond the songs, into genius.” The album WON both the LATIN GRAMMY for “Best Pop-Rock Album” and took home the GRAMMY award for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album.” The critically-acclaimed and highly personal 2023“VIDA COTIDIANA” (‘Everyday Life’) album, sees Juanes continuing his immersive return to his electric guitar rock roots with a deep dive back into his own long-praised skill as an ardent songwriter – who this time turned his focus inward during the pandemic to reexamine his matured take on life, love, family, social concerns and more. The wide consensus reaction to the album universally declared the work as “the best album of Juanes career’ and saw his musical peers bestow repeat award recognition with the 2023 LATIN GRAMMY for “Best Pop-Rock Album” and this year’s GRAMMY for “Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album.” Numerous media outlets hailed the album among ‘The Best Latin Music of 2023’ including NPR, Billboard, Variety, and Rolling Stone- saying: “ Three decades in the industry haven’t dampened [the] creativity… of one of the most beloved stars in the Spanish-speaking world, and his ]11th] album proves it.. ‘One of the Best Latin Albums of the Year’ …Vida Cotidiana is full of lessons from his heroes, but it’s made up of original songs charged with new energy, some of Juanes’ best writing... and razor-sharp production” As Juanes’ first album created with the members of his long-time touring band totally immersed in the recording sessions, it is no surprise that it has also been a natural dynamic transition to the live stage. Driven by the sound of Juanes’ own recently unveiled signature Fender Stratocaster, the VIDA COTIDIANA WORLD TOUR is enthralling fans around the world, with his Spring North American tour leg met with Sold-Out shows throughout the country and The Los Angeles Times proclaiming the production as ‘A Magic Night… A Guitar Masterclass… Packed to Capacity… And One Of His Best Performances To Date.” Rolling Stone and Billboard continued the applause, hailing the Sold-Out tour stop in New York as both “Epic” & Triumphant.” While the VIDA COTIDIANA WORLD TOUR will continue throughout 2024, including a second U.S. tour leg this Fall, 2024 will also see Juanes delve deeper into his interest in acting. Having developed from his very hands on behind the scenes and in front of the camera work on many of his own award winning music videos across the years, Juanes also made periodic film and TV appearances, that included a cameo in Jennifer Lopez’ “Bordertown,” a significant voice role in the OSCAR nominated animated movie “Ferdinand”, and a praised guest appearance in the hit network TV show “Jane The Virgin”. Now, this fall will see Juanes take on a starring role in the upcoming film “Pimpinero”-directed by Andi Baiz, For Amazon

You can capsulize most pop music acts by reciting how many hits they’ve had and how many millions of albums they’ve sold. But these conventional measurements fall short when you’re assessing the impact of The Beach Boys. This band has birthed a torrent of hit singles and sold albums by the tens of millions. But its greater significance lies in the fact that The Beach Boys’ songs have forever changed the musical landscape, profoundly influencing countless performing artists to follow.   At the helm of The Beach Boys is lead Singer & Critically acclaimed lyricist,  Mike Love, a founding member whose leadership has steered the band through decades of musical evolution. Grammy-winning songwriter Bruce Johnston joined The Beach Boys in 1965, replacing Glenn Campbell, who filled-in for Brian Wilson, on vocals/bass, when he retired from touring. Highly regarded in his field, Johnston brought with him a wealth of experience from working with icons like Elton John and Pink Floyd, The Byrds, cementing his place among rock's elite.   The current lineup, including musical director Brian Eichenberger, Christian Love, Tim Bonhomme, Jon Bolton, Keith Hubacher, Randy Leago, and John Wedemeyer, continues to honor and expand upon the band's iconic Live performance legacy. This dedication is evident in their rigorous touring schedule, with the band performing an average of 150 shows a year across a variety of venues worldwide.   In 2012, The Beach Boys marked their 50th anniversary with a reunion tour and the release of "That's Why God Made the Radio," which debuted at #3 on the Billboard charts, their highest chart position in 37 years. This resurgence of interest highlighted the band's continued relevance and their ability to resonate with both long-time fans and new listeners alike.   Their discography includes milestones like the triple platinum-certified Sounds of Summer and "The Warmth of the Sun, which have contributed to a renewed interest in their music. Despite having numerous opportunities to retire at the height of their success, such as after the release of the groundbreaking Pet Sounds masterpiece in 1966, or after Mike Love’s concept album Endless Summer ignited a second generation of Beach Boys fans and stirred a tempest that rocked the music world, or after recording Love’s co-written Golden Globe nominated “Kokomo” in 1988 and seeing it become its best-selling single ever, or after being inducted that same year into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, The Beach Boys have chosen to continue touring and sharing music with the world, a testament to their commitment to their art and fans.   The Beach Boys celebrated the 50th anniversary of the hit “Good Vibrations” – which is widely considered one of the greatest masterpieces in the history of rock and roll – in 2016 with a 50 Years of Good Vibrations tour, underscoring the song's status as a rock and roll masterpiece. Mike Love's memoir, GOOD VIBRATIONS: My Life as a Beach Boy, further cemented their place in music history by becoming a New York Times Best Seller.   Recent years have seen the release of comprehensive box sets like Feel Flows – The Sunflower and Surf’s Up Sessions 1969-1971" and Sail On Sailor – 1972, exploring in-depth the band's transformative periods. These collections, featuring a plethora of previously unreleased tracks, showcase the band's versatility and profound influence on the music industry.   In 2023, The Beach Boys were celebrated in the CBS tribute special “Grammy Salute to the Beach Boys,” featuring performances by a diverse array of artists including Beck, Brandi Carlile, Michael McDonald, Pentatonix, St. Vincent, Weezer, Norah Jones, John Legend, and Mumford & Sons among others.    Looking ahead, the band is set to debut their official book, The Beach Boys by The Beach Boys, in April 2024 via Gensis Publications.  Published in a limited edition of only 500 copies worldwide, the book offers an intimate look at the band’s journey from a Hawthorne garage band to international stardom, enriched with rare photographs and historical documents.   The Beach Boys have been a significant presence at major events, including Live Aid and the Statue of Liberty’s 100th Anniversary Salute, showcasing their unparalleled ability to captivate audiences. Mike Love's contributions as a songwriter, in collaboration with Brian Wilson, have produced timeless hits like “Surfin’,” “Fun, Fun, Fun,” and “California Girls,” “Warmth of the Sun,” “Good Vibrations,”  and long list of other titles highlighting his enduring talent.      Continuing to engage his fans with new and innovative projects, in 2020 Love released the single "This Too Shall Pass"  featuring John Stamos aimed at offering hope during the Covid-19 pandemic. In 2019, he released "12 Sides of Summer," featuring a mix of original songs, covers, and new versions of Beach Boys hits including “Surfin," "Surfin' Safari" and "It's Ok," featuring Hanson. The song marked Love's second recording with Hanson, after previously collaborating on "Finally it's Christmas" for Love's 2018 holiday album, Reason For The Season, which also features vocals from Love’s children: Ambha, Brian, Christian, and Hayleigh Love. In 2017, Love released a special double album entitled Unleash the Love featuring 13 previously unreleased songs and 14 re-recordings of Beach Boys classics to positive acclaim.   Mike Love's philanthropy extends his influence far beyond the musical stage, demonstrating a deep commitment to giving back to the community.  A Grammy® winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, Love has been at the forefront of numerous charitable efforts, using his platform to support a wide range of causes. In 1990, he responded to President George H. W. Bush's call for service by founding StarServe, an initiative aimed at motivating young people towards community service, showcasing his early commitment to philanthropy. His philanthropic efforts were recognized when he and his wife Jacquelyne received the prestigious Points of Light Award, highlighting his significant contributions to volunteer service and impacting lives across the globe. Through the Love Foundation, Mike has supported initiatives focusing on education, health, environmental conservation, and disaster relief, showcasing a legacy of compassion and service alongside his storied musical career.
