Radio announcer, technical director, perennial volunteer, and one of the greatest supporters of acoustic music ever, Mary Cliff has touched the lives of most Washingtonians at some point. Tonight’s concert is a love fest for Mary and her Saturday night radio show, Traditions, which recently moved from WETA to WAMU.

Featured entertainers include Sue Trainor with Hot Soup (Trainor, Christina Muir and Jennie Avila), mainstays of the metro folksong, Magpie, who've just celebrated their 30th anniversary, Dead Men’s Hollow, standouts in the local bluegrass and folk music scene (Amy Nazarov Belinda Hardesty, Caryn Fox, Jared Creason, Marcy Cochran and Mike Clayberg), virtuoso songbird, Dede Wyland (with Mark Delaney on banjo, Kip Martin on bass and Frank Solivan II on fiddle), and Paul and Judy Luis-Watson.

Join us for nostalgia and good cheer as we honor our Mary.
