I've been to The Runaway a couple of times (their sister bar/venue) etc... cool spot, heard multiple times it was shutting down but it appears that still hasn't happened yet.

The Runaway is closed, supposedly temporarily, and reopening in June. It's a cool space, kind of like a gentrified Velvet Lounge, but with the music on the bottom and a space to chill somewhat and eat upstairs. They have a nice patio as well. It's the closest, hippest spot to me so I'm hoping they find their footing.

I've seen the North Country (at some house show in Bloomington possibly opening for Lucy Dacus) and they are excellent

not sure about oh he's dead, but they have been getting a lot of stage time the past few years so they must be doing something right

That's kind of a bummer and a waste of the space. Maybe the closure was a re-vamp to clear out the live music gear and setup for more of a restaurant focused atmosphere. Eh.

A friends band…with Pittsburgh roots

They have some videos up…I would describe them as funky jam bandish. They played Jammin Java last year - their first show in like 25 years

It was a fun show! Maybe a bit of a trek from the north, but the "price per note played" ratio can't be beat!

definitely like 9th tier hamband... but I could've sworn they had a large african american lead singer. I definitely saw them in the 90's when they shared the stage with superstar bands like New Potato Caboose and Hypnotic Clambake

Interesting Yada that you go that far back….

This is sort of a new agglomeration in part….i think there are only three members from the last iteration which was itself a variation of the group that played the Pitt circuit along with bands like Rusted Root (the one band to make it from there)

Anyways these are people with regular careers just getting together for good vibes…

 The “School’s Out” matinee by  Breakfast All Day Records
features alt-rockers Scoria; jammy act Lola; and the Plastic Toys, a trio that features one-third of the label’s brain trust on drums.

 Breakfast All Day Records was launched by Bethesda high-schoolers last year. The label’s mission statement was published on Instagram but could have been released any time in the last 40 years: “With so many exciting things happening in the teenage music scene locally, we want to work to document and share it with you.” (June 8 at 1:30 p.m. at Songbyrd. songbyrddc.com. $12-$15.)

Based on name alone, don’t think I would take free tickets to see either of these bands

described as: DC’s “Tenacious Double Ds”

 “Revolution (Poop At Work)” which catapulted the duo to viral infamy and a strong following with over 25 million organic views of their videos on Instagram, more than 15 million of those views for that song alone. Even Questlove commented on the song, saying “LOL I feel seen, I see my version as a political act.”
