Munit Mesfin is an Ethio-American singer and songwriter whose musical stylings range from jazz to soul, funk to reggae. Last year, she presented a Roberta Flack Tribute concert, which shone a light on the classics that this Arlingtonian native brought to the world! This year, she is bringing an Ethio-jazzy and soulful set, bringing the music she grew up on, music performed by legends such as the father of Ethio-Jazz, Mulatu Astatke, the legendary Tilahun Gessesse, Alemayehu Eshete, Asnakech Worku, Gigi and more while she dips into the jazz and soul music records that shaped her performance style, with tributes to Aretha, Roberta, Ella, and Sarah and more! Come for a night of her jazzy Ethiopian soul!_____
Since the construction of the first permanent stage in 1969, generations of Arlingtonians have enjoyed free summer cultural events at the sylvan venue nestled two blocks off Route 50, ranging from Encore Stage & Studio to bands like Raul Midón, Eddie from Ohio and superstar Ritchie Havens.
The Lubber Run Summer Concert series features free performances from a variety of genres including big band, blues, soul and orchestral music as well as cabaret to the Lubber Run Amphitheater. Working in partnership with the Lubber Run Amphitheater Foundation which funds four family-friendly shows at the end of the season, we bring the very best of DC metro area arts to the heart of Arlington.
