Metro Concerts Live

Metro Concerts Live (MCL) is a promotion company founded in 2010 by brothers Aron and Garrett Wilson with the goal of encouraging and supporting local venues and bands. Based in Des Moines, Iowa, MCL organizes and promotes live music events, aiming to foster the local music scene. The company has faced challenges, including local curfews for all-ages shows and perceptions of 'pay-to-play' practices. Despite these hurdles, MCL has grown, averaging eight shows a month in 2012 and diversifying the types of shows they offer. Their mission emphasizes a love for music and building personal relationships with local artists, rather than solely focusing on ticket sales. MCL's operations include booking acts, managing band communications, and navigating the complexities of the live music industry in their region. They are located at 226 NW Sunrise Drive, Waukee, Iowa 50263, with contact information including booking@metroconcertslive.com, 515.205.8447, and 515.369.2503.
