"Local Cream" Songwriter Showcase

“Local Cream” is a monthly songwriter showcase curated by DMV singer-songwriter Annette Wasilik. The event brings local and regional original artists to the historic stage at Hank Dietle’s Tavern for an intimate, welcoming listening-room experience focused on the stories, songs, and craft behind their music.

The showcase spans Americana, folk, country, blues, roots, and original music that resists easy classification.
