On May 12th, 2018, Washington DC rejoiced together in the name of funk, and it was good. The 5th Annual Funk Parade filled the historic U Street Corridor with music and maDCap was there to capture the energy. Our own David Ross was one of the festival organizers this year and Dan Bloom was lucky enough to run into him and snag a few minutes while walking together down U Street.

You'll also hear impromptu appearances by our friends Amy Saidman of Story District and Philippa Hughes of Women of Uncertain Age and you'll hear music by Dave Rob, Batala Washington Women's Drum Corps, and Be'la Dona, the dynamo all-woman GoGo band.

Thanks to David, Amy, Philippa, Justin, Chris, Tony, and all the organizers, artists, and sponsors who keep the funk alive.

We welcome AFI Docs back for its 2017 edition with a homecoming gift for the ears. Like a bottle of fine wine, we’ve been waiting for just the right moment to crack this fine 2014 vintage. Hold onto your brooms, because we have a conversation about Quidditch... yes, the sport from Harry Potter...and the power of believers to make dreams into reality. Enjoy a visit with the filmmakers and subjects of “Mudbloods”: director Farzad Sangari, former UCLA Quidditch players Tom Marks and Sebastian Milla, and silent producer Eric Martin.

See this film on Netflix! Learn more about the film at http://MudbloodsMovie.com

Upon hearing the 22 year-old Trevor Sensor's unique voice, we knew our little tunnel underneath Dupont Circle would wrap its arms around him. Straight out of Sterling, IL, his singing style tilts its hat to prominent voices like Bob Dylan. Since it was just he and his weapon of choice, an old but classy acoustic guitar, we thought it'd be best to record in the iGlow (installation built by artist Hiroshi Jacobs).
