Renowned punk and rock bands Violent Femmes and the Eagles of Death Metal are set to play Cain’s Ballroom this summer, the venue announced Tuesday.

The Eagles of Death Metal will play July 16, with tickets starting at $26 plus fees in advance. Violent Femmes plays the historic venue July 17, with tickets $27 plus fees in advance. Tickets to both shows go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday.

Formed by Josh Homme and Jesse Hughes, the Eagles of Death Metal has released four albums since 2004, most recently “Zipper Down” in 2015.

In November, the band was playing Le Bataclan theater in Paris when the building was stormed by gunmen, part of terrorist attacks across the city Nov. 13. Nearly 90 people were killed in the theater, including Nick Alexander, who worked the band’s merchandise table.

The day after Eagles of Death Metal, the Violent Femmes takes the Cain’s Ballroom stage. Formed in the early 1980s, the band was a leader in the early punk movement, with millions of albums sold through its career.

Their first self-titled album included hits like “Blister in the Sun” and “Kiss Off.” It has since released seven more albums around hiatuses in the decades since. The band released “We Can Do Anything” in March, its first studio album in 16 years.

Tickets to both shows will be available at cainsballroom.com, by phone at 877-4-FLYTIX or at the Cain’s box office, 423 N. Main St.
