The Pushovers are “an all-lesbian” pop-rock crew gearing up for a “gender bending” festival performance. Are you sold yet?

Guitar, bass and drums. 3-part harmonies. Beatboxing and songwriting. When three experienced singer-songwriters come together from Brooklyn, Washington, DC, and Baltimore, it’s gotta have promise. Mara, Nancy and Liz have all toured nationwide but are just now recording their first EP together (and need YOUR HELP to produce it!) as The Pushovers versus individually. When their combined starpower is among us, I think shit’s gonna get bright.
And if you want proof, you can see ’em for yourself.
The Pushovers are performing at the Atlas Theater’s INTERSECTIONS festival on March 9 in Washington, DC for an hour spot. After the show, Out @ Intersections happy hour will provide for solid boozing.
The Pushovers: Live at the Atlas is 15 dollars (10 for students and seniors). The performance takes place at the Atlas Performing Arts Center at the Lang Theater, at 1333 H St NE in Washington, DC, on March 9 at 5:30 PM. Ages 12+. Buy tickets today! (PS — hit up Dangerously Delicious pies while you’re over there. Safe bet for an amazing night.)
I thought there was going to be like an article when I clicked on this..
There is also a Kickstarter going right now for this group if you want to support them. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/pushovers/the-pushovers-debut-album
I second the Dangerously Delicious Pies rec – OMG the BBQ pulled pork pie. Um, if you aren’t vegetarian.
So glad to see a DC event here! I really feel like it is time for another AS meetup.
they’re also playing in Brooklyn on Friday at Pete’s Candy Store! they’re so wonderful and funny and make awesome music.

Damnn this is 15 days before I move to DC. Does this kind of thing happen often? Is there anywhere that posts about DC stuff like this regularly?
Argh I wish this was happening three days later when I’ll actually be in DC.
