The founding members of Violet Vier are Erica, Annie, and Melanie. After a few line-up changes this year these chicks are continuing to rock out.
Every member of the band has their own influence of music ranging from punk, metal, gothic, syncopated cowbells, rainsticks, and classic rock. These women have combined their styles to produce their own passionate, hard-rocking music, branding their sound under the label “vagXcoreâ€.
They hope that fans keep coming out to their shows to support their favorite all-female rock band!

TAKE BACK NEW YORK – Thursday March 26th, Don Hill’s NYC
It was a night of circular forces. The rain and wind had been pounding the city all day long and well into the evening, giving no signs of letting up anytime soon. As the people filtered into the club, I for one was riddled with excitement but also concern. For the past 16 months, I was convinced that this city, our city, was in need of more live music, more spirit, more heart – hell, I was in need of it. And to some extent I was right; there was a core of people who came month after month for this ritual of Rock N Roll complete with live local bands and an All Star Jam Finale.
Violet Vier kicked off the night with their brand of punk-rock alt-metal. They popped their Don Hill’s cherry with style - you gotta love a band who covers [Divinyls’] “I Touch Myself†AND Sabbath’s “Paranoid.†I’d played acoustic with these girls at a show their guitarist Annie put on in an Elks Lodge or something in Staten Island, and playing with them reminded me of how I felt playing Continental or CBGB’s for the first time – like a whole other world had opened up and I belonged there…
