From Chuck Brown's rhythms to official DC recognition.
Go-go music is a brand of funk, R&B, hip-hop, and Afro-Latin rhythms created in the 1970s by “Godfather of Go-Go” Chuck Brown and his Washington D.C. fans.
On February 19, 2020, Mayor Muriel Bowser signed DC law 23-71 Go-Go As Official Music of the District of Columbia Designation Act and selected the Go-Go Museum as a key site for its implementation in her Go-Go People’s Plan.
