About Me

MySpace Codes The DownsTown Band consists of friends from years past. Randall Downs (vocalist and acoustic guitar) has been writing music over the past 9 years, and after having fun with the tunes, these friends decided to come together to form DownsTown Band. The DownsTown Band is a nice mixture of acoustic alternative/jazz/rock.
