Live Music in Washington DC
DC's music scene has historically been dominated by homegrown sounds—go-go's infectious percussion, the city's thriving indie and post-punk undercurrent. Electronic and dance music exist here, but they've always operated somewhat parallel to the main cultural conversation. A-Trak's brand of skillful turntablism and electronic production fits more naturally into New York's DNA, though his appearances suggest there's enough appetite among DC's more experimental listeners to occasionally host artists working in more technical, production-focused territory.
Washington DC road trip to see A-Trak?
Stay in Georgetown or Capitol Hill, both walkable neighborhoods with excellent restaurants and bars. Book a table at Kinfolk in Capitol Hill for refined New American cooking, or head to Pineapple and Pearls for something more elaborate if you want to splurge. During the day, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden offers world-class contemporary art without the crowds of the main Smithsonians. Walk the C&O Canal towpath if the weather cooperates. Hit up one of the city's serious record shops like Smash! Records before the show.
