Welcome to thedowntowncountyband.com!


The Downtown County Band is Wes Petzinger, on acoustic guitar and vocals, Keith Clifton on open back banjo and vocals, Dan Atkins on mandolin and vocals, Sam McWilliams on fiddle, and John Atha on upright bass fiddle. Wes and Keith originate from Owen County, Kentucky. Dan, Sam, and John come from neighboring Franklin County. These five have built their grouping out of a shared appreciation for acoustic roots music. The DCB play music from the turn of the 20th century. They celebrate the old Jug Band music born out of the Ohio and Mississippi River ways of life, as well as blues from The South. The County Band is no stranger to Appalachian Gospel, Mountain, or Old Timey Music. They play an ecletic blend of folk roots music styles, with their own contemporary arrangements.
