Bruise Violet is an "angry harmonic grunge punk" band, made up of the members Emily, Bella, and Danielle. Deriving their sound from the roots of the Riot Grrrl movement, the girls are loud and angry, while wearing dresses and looking as feminine as possible on stage. They add their own twist with three part harmonies on top of the loud riffs playing. It's like Broadway meets Bikini Kill. They've played many venues around the Twin Cities, such as 7th Street Entry, Triple Rock Social Club, Studio B in the Skyway Theatre, Memory Lanes, The Fallout Arts Initiative, and many others. Sugar, spice, and a kick in the teeth.
