THE SCOFFLAWS
THE FUSS
LEON CITY SOUNDS
$20 / Doors at 8:00 / All Ages

Third wave ska stalwarts THE SCOFFLAWS return to DC from Long Island after over 20 years! Originally formed in 1988, they are one of the most beloved acts from the Moon Ska roster of the 1990s. The band is known for their high energy live shows, technically proficient horn solos and tight arrangements, and eclectic covers of jazz standards.

THE FUSS is a dynamic ska, rocksteady, and early reggae band from Washington, D.C. Their sound pays tribute to the music of 1960’s Jamaica and the British Mod scene, while putting modern slant on these timeless styles.

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense.
