Capitol Steps

  • Location: Alexandria, VA

From the group that puts the "MOCK" in Democracy, it's the Capitol Steps! Founded by former Congressional staffers, the Capitol Steps provide a unique blend of musical and political comedy to our Nation's Capital and more.

The Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that once employed them. Many of the performers have worked on Capitol Hill. In fact, the current cast of the Capitol Steps has at one time or another infested the offices of eleven US Senators and seven Members of the House of Representatives. (Most of these politicians have since been defeated or placed under investigation.)

The Capitol Steps have recorded 27 albums, including their latest, "Springtime for Liberals." They have been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS and can be heard 4 times a year on National Public Radio stations nationwide during their "Politics Takes a Holiday" radio specials.
