On the first Friday and Saturday of April, Violent Hippie will once again take the stage at The Back Porch in Spearfish. Friday night will be three full sets of eclectic covers and VH originals. On Saturday night, Violent Hippie will share the spotlight with the Minneapolis-based funk rock reggae group, Roster McCabe.
