Editorial Review

Anti-gentrification holdout spills rock rhythms onto the streets of Shaw and into the hearts of discretely tattooed good girls who keep celebrating their twenty-ninth.  Traditional DC row house still standing thanks to old-fashioned grit and the polish of spilled beer.  Upstairs is all pink and purple lights, poofy pleather couches—your best friend’s living room.  The smallest stage in the world makes all the bands you’ve never heard sound that much bigger.
