Colten Wyatt Band:
The Heartbeat of Midwest Music

From the heart of Lincoln, Nebraska comes a sound that feels both brand-new and right-at-home. The Colten Wyatt Band blends country, gospel, southern rock, and classic Americana into a high-energy, harmony-rich experience built for dance floors, county fairs, street dances, and packed-out ballrooms across the Midwest.

Led by vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Colten Wyatt—who’s been performing since age eight and holds both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Music Education from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln—the band delivers the perfect mix of musical excellence and down-home soul. Their setlist nods to the legends:

  • The storytelling grit of Johnny Cash

  • The energy of Charlie Daniels

  • The twang of Dwight Yoakam

  • The heart of Willie Nelson

  • The anthems of Alabama and Brooks & Dunn

Original Music: Now Streaming Everywhere

The band recently released their debut single “Peace On Earth,” a modern country anthem rooted in harmony, heart, and old back-road wisdom. Written by Ben Kramer, Colten McCauley, Cotter Hill, and Garrett Miller — and produced by Nicholas Kenton — the song channels the spirit of classic country with a fresh, radio-ready edge.

If you love Brooks & Dunn, Keith Urban, or Zach Top, you’ll feel right at home.
