“We were thrilled to open Fiserv Forum with the Killers,” says Femmes’ bass player Brian Ritchie, “That energy was followed by a massive and glorious season for the Bucks.
“Now we have spontaneously been brought in for Cheers to Milwaukee! We always love to connect with our hometown fans and we're stoked that Miller and the Riverside turned to the Femmes for this celebration. We'll play all the favorites and a few surprises in our usual free manner.”
