This weekend the Black Cat invited old D.C. music stalwarts and promising new bands to celebrate the club’s 20th anniversary. Across the board, the performances from the weekend were spirited and the joy and reverence for the space, genuine. However, throughout the weekend-long party a few moments stood out.

Ahead of tonight’s twentieth anniversary show for the Black Cat, DCist caught up with D.C. guitar virtuoso Mary Timony.

To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of D.C.’s favorite punk venue, we created this Spotify playlist. Enjoy!
