U Street Music Hall ‘Alum’ Crewneck Sweatshirt (Limited edition)
$40.00JUST RESTOCKED!
Ooh, we’re excited about this one. We created this crewneck collegiate-style sweatshirt just in time for our busy fall 2023 schedule.
It’s a special nod to our fans who have rocked with us since the beginning days at 1115 U St. and the perfect “back to school” wardrobe addition to kick off our fall programming lineup!
If you grew up going to the school of U Street Music Hall, this alum sweatshirt is for you.
NOTE: This sweatshirt may run a little big (we envisioned this look when we designed it!) It should shrink; however, if you prefer a more fitted look, we suggest sizing down.

U Street Music Hall 10-Year Anniversary Tee (Reissue)
$25.00BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! FEATURED IN THE WASHINGTON POST!
This was our 10-Year Anniversary Week t-shirt, designed by the one and only Kelly Towles.
A little backstory about this tee: We were set to debut this awesome shirt, which gives a nod to D.C.’s Metro system, during our 10-Year Anniversary Week celebration in March 2020. However due to the COVID-19, U Street Music Hall closed its doors just days before our weeklong celebration.
We sold this shirt during shutdowns. It was so popular that we sold out of the tee…multiple times!
We’re bringing it back for a limited time, so if you missed your chance to snag one or you wore your shirt out, now is your chance to buy one!

– Unisex T-shirt
