Recommended DC: Concerts

Recommend is part of our name so it makes sense to recommend concerts. Since we launched two years ago we’ve been shining a light on worthwhile excursions, including shows. We’re streamlining things. So here’s our recommendations for concerts in Washington, D.C. We’re going with one show per day. While there is absolutely no shortage of quality live music opportunities, sometimes less is more. 

Some of the shows are technically sold-out. But since the secondary ticket market exists, no show is ever truly sold-out.
