Coming May 14, 2026 from @bloomsburybooksus @331.3books Spent the last year talking to band members, producers, managers, and other musicians about this incredible album. Can’t wait to share what came of it all. Some amazing stories in here. A dream to be able to write about this album for the 33 1/3 series. Link in bio #violentfemmes #333books

Amazed and excited to report that Mark Kano - my longtime bandmate from Athenaeum - is going to make an appearance at my book launch this Thursday, May 14, in Chapel Hill at @flyleafbooks (signing at 5:30, event starts at 6) to perform a song from Violent Femmes with me and Shannon Ferguson @shannoneferguson , my bandmate from Longwave. Once-in-a-lifetime musical summit! Might be the third time this century I’ve performed live with Mark?? Man. Thanks, Mark. This is going to be good. #violentfemmes #athenaeum
