[Ed. Note: Winner Announced Friday, Feb. 22]
“Two submissions for your contest:
(1) A picture of A. Litteri’s entrance, representing my favorite spot this week – the D.C. Farmers’ Market off of Florida Ave in NE. Last weekend was my first trip to the market and after picking up Italian groceries, vegetables from Sam Wang’s, and a trip to one of the butchers, I was all set for a Sunday dinner for friends. I only found one fresh fish vendor but will continue the search!
(2) A poor adaptation of a good Wilco song. Give my apologies to Tweedy when you see him at show.”
Check out the adaptation of the Wilco song after the jump.

Prince o’P, don’t cry
You can rely on us honey
You can drop by any time you want
We’ll be around
You were right about DC
Each block, a great place should be
Fed buildings shake
Voices escape singing loud loud songs
Tuned to chords strung down their cheeks
Party melodies turning their orbit around
Don’t cry
You can rely on us honey
Come stop by any time you want
We’ll stick around
You are right about DC
Each street is a rising sun
Wilson building shakes
Voices escape singing big big songs
Tuned to chords strung down our cheeks
City melodies turning our orbit around
Voices rise
The city is coming together
Your voice is calling
A Wilco spot is what we can get
Turning our orbit around
Northeast
Southwest
It’s all our neighborhood
Southeast
Northwest, it’s all of our city
Each one is a shining sun
Our houses shake
Voices escape singing sweet sweet songs
Tuned to chords strung down your cheeks
Petworth melodies turning your orbit around
Your voice rose
Jeff Tweedy is coming to our town
My voice is calling
A last Wilco spot is all I would like
Turning my orbit around
A last Wilco spot is all I would like
Turning my orbit around
A last Wilco spot is all I would like
Turning my orbit around

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
