About The Downtown Collective
The Downtown Collective
The Downtown Collective Band was established in 2016 as just a couple of guys who wanted to jam out in the attic. We got some small gigs here and there doing hybrid DJ/live music performances. Then we found friends from music school/work that played instruments and made the jam bigger and got more gigs. Now we are known as one of the top bands in the Midwest. We love playing live music because you get a much more authentic experience with people actually playing instruments and sharing what they feel deep down in their soul as they perform! All of our past clients agree- Downtown Collective is a high energy group that gets everyone dancing!
We aren't like your typical band because we like to put the focus on the event and the people involved. We are really good at reading the crowd and mixing our set list up to play music for everyone. The stage and dance floor combines into a community of people having the time of their lives! People are dancing AND singing with us. Yes we are a cover band, but we actually cover the songs and do our own little spins on the arrangements of the songs.

The Downtown Collective
Have the Downtown Collective was one of the best wedding decisions we made. The band was incredibly professional, readily available, and incredibly receptive towards any ideas we had. They did a wonderful job for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They were so helpful the day of as well. We would highly recommend having the band for any couple!
Best Band Ever!
I couldn’t recommend The Downtown Collective more! My husband and I always knew we wanted a live band for our wedding and they certainly exceeded all of our expectations. Cornell and his talented group of musicians were so easy to work with and very attentive to all the details we wanted for our big day. So many of our guests continue to talk about how amazing the entertainment was all night long. The dance floor was always filled and the vibes never stopped. You will truly have the best day ever if you have The Downtown Collective at your wedding!
The Best!
We’ve had the pleasure of working with The Downtown Collective at not one, but two of our Wings & Wheels events—most recently in Lincoln, and previously in Omaha last September—and we truly can’t say enough great things about them! They are fabulous performers with amazing energy, but beyond that, they are incredibly professional, reliable, and so easy to work with. From load-in to soundcheck to showtime, they handle everything with a level of care and coordination that makes event planning so much smoother. Our guests absolutely loved their music, and we’ve received so many compliments after both events. The Downtown Collective brings the perfect mix of talent, charisma, and crowd connection—we’re so grateful to have them as part of the Wings & Wheels experience. Highly recommend them for any event where you want great music and even better people behind it!
The best there is!
Best decision you could make on your special day! Book them if you want your wedding to be one people remember!
