The Week In Shows: 2/20/17-2/26/17

A faux spring kind of Sunday morning seems as good a time as any to plot ones weekly live music schedule, I think. Let's take a look at what's happening in the greater DC metro this week, shall we? Hot diggity!

It was a rough week, friends, but the appearance of a fake spring for a few days does wonders. It also makes for excellent show-going weather! And now, without further ado, here's a look at some of the shows I happen to recommend for the coming week in the DC metro.

And as an aside, if you've got a show coming up you'd like me to consider including in my weekly calendar, just shoot me an email with "Calendar" somewhere in the subject line. Thanks y'all!
