Violent Femmes are set to release 2 MICS & THE TRUTH: UNPLUGGED & UNHINGED IN AMERICA, a new collection of unprecedented live recordings. Featuring ‘all-new live performances, including rearranged classics, songs played live for the first time, spontaneous requests, and random improvisations’, the live album arrives via PIAS on Friday, July 7.
The album was recorded last year as the band visited public radio stations and music media outlets across the country in support of their acclaimed ninth studio album, WE CAN DO ANYTHING. 2 MICS & THE TRUTH: UNPLUGGED & UNHINGED IN AMERICA will be available on CD, digital download, and 2 LP vinyl, with the latter edition featuring five additional songs.
