Description
The nation’s premier political satirists take no prisoners as they tackle immigration reform, financial bailouts, Tea Parties…and whatever shenanigans Washington comes up with. For over 30 years, these former Congressional staffers have been skewering our government with punch lines from the left and jabs from the right.
The Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. In the years that followed, many of the Steps ignored the conventional wisdom ("Don't quit your day job!"), and although not all of the current members of the Steps are former Capitol Hill staffers, taken together the performers have worked in a total of eighteen Congressional offices and represent 62 years of collective House and Senate staff experience. Since they began, the Capitol Steps have recorded 29 albums, including their latest, Barackin' Around the Christmas Tree and Obama Mia!. They've been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC, and PBS, and can be heard 4 times a year on National Public Radio stations nationwide during their Politics Takes a Holiday radio specials.
