Hijas de Violencia

Their performances are noted for their playfulness, confrontation, and pointed critique. According to Natalie Delgadillo of CityLab:

Their performances are an interesting mixture of serious confrontation and lighthearted play. They may be going up against their harassers, but the women look downright joyful while they do it, smiling at one another and jumping around as they sing. That sense of play goes right down to the group’s name, which is a nod to the violence they’re confronting, but also a play on the name of Violencia Rivas, a character played by Argentinian comedian Peter Capusotto, who calls herself the mother of punk.^[4]

Though two of the founding members, Ana Beatriz and Ana Karen, identify primarily as actresses, rather than musicians, Las Hijas de Violencia cite Pussy Riot as a major influence.^[4]
