The DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, is proud to bring back DC Grooves, which adds a breathtaking vigor to Washington's “Indian Summer,” as the city’s most spectacular free evening outdoor concert series featuring three Fridays of incredible performances from world renowned and local artists.

This year’s series was headlined by the legendary multi-platinum artists Ashford and Simpson, the kings of “old school” funk and soul, the Commodores, and one of the most gifted artists of our time “Latin sensation” Jon Secada. The Arts Commission invites all to come out and enjoy three spectacular evenings Friday, September 5, 12 and 19 from 7 pm to 9 pm at the Woodrow Wilson Plaza at the Ronald Regan Building and International Trade Center.

On September 19 DC Grooves culminates, with a Hispanic Heritage Month special performance featuring Latin superstar Jon Secada. Sit back and be wooed by Secada’s silky smooth voice as he performs pop favorites such as Get on Your Feet, Just Another Day and Angel.

If you missed the September 5 performance of iconic musical husband-and-wife team Ashford and Simpson inaugurates DC Grooves 2008 with an electrifying performance, taking the audience down memory lane with songs like Solid, Ain't No Mountain High Enough, and Closest to Love here are some pictures of what you missed. Ashford and Simpson performed for several thousand fans.
