Violet Vicious and The Vagabonds play original music with a choice cover or so thrown in the mix!
Band/artist history
Violet Vicious and The Vagabonds began as a "basement band" in July, 2007.
Carly's( aka Violet Vicious) songwriting is drawn from her unique view of personal experiences; her struggles, relationships, political views, and her passions. Add Leo's arrangements and smokin' guitar, and cook in Beeg Mo's bad bass bottom, Brian Grady's Drums and Pecussion, Brian Butkiewicz at Keyboards and voila; you have VVV's own unique sound!
We play original music drawn from life's experiences with a choice cover or two thrown in. Our sound is distinct and we will continue to grow and develop it so that you-our awesome fans- can relax, have some fun, & groove to great tunes!
Keep checking back with us as we have new songs in the cooker, new dates coming up soon, a VVV fan mailing list, and just lots of great stuff coming your way!
Peace and Love VVV

Great classic rock sound on the drums, bass and guitar - my kind of music! Love the lyrics - a signature voice, very distinctive sound. Enjoyed this a lot! :)
