This weekend is shaping up loud and fast in Geneva. The 5th edition of Recluses Fest kicks off tonight and Saturday at the Alhambra, with the first wave of concerts and a seriously international punk-rock lineup.
The headliner is Marky Ramone. The legendary Ramones drummer hits the stage with his band, Marky Ramones Blitzkrieg, bringing classics like Blitzkrieg Bop, I Wanna Be Sedated, and Rock ’n’ Roll High School back to life.
Also on the bill this weekend: GBH, Conflict, and The Damn Givers. Recluses Fest runs over three weekends until mid-March across several Geneva venues — all in the true punk spirit of being loud, different, and unapologetic.
