The Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. Their form of musical political satire is sure to get you laughing. Would you rather see famous public figures or hear the Capitol Steps make fun of them?

In the years that followed their initial creation, 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 over 30 albums, including their latest, Liberal Shop of Horrors and Barackin' Around the Christmas Tree. They've been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC, and PBS, and can be heard four times a year on National Public Radio stations nationwide during their Politics Takes a Holiday radio specials.
