“Dear PoP,
A few months ago, local artist Flo Anito shot her first music video at
Capital City Diner, and the video’s now up on Youtube. We’re really proud
to help support local music, and the video turned out great!”
Awesome!

“Dear PoP,
I’d like to think you have a pretty open and diverse readership. The Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, DC (GMCW) holiday show is this weekend. It’s a family friendly event!
Details after the jump.
Lisner Auditorium at George Washington University
Our holiday fantasia arrives complete with the Sugar Plum Fairy, lots of vodka and, of course, sexy men in tights. GMCW revives its popular take-off on Tchaikovsky’s beloved Nutcracker Suite, set to a wonderland of choral singing.

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!
