The Collection with Evan BartelsThe Collection
The Collection derives an inimitable musical language from the unbreakable bond between its members. Fronted by David Wimbish, the Saxapahaw, NC-based band places just as much emphasis on interpersonal community and relationships as it does on the music itself.
Theirs isn’t an overnight success story. They have generated tens of millions of streams, logged tens of thousands of miles on the road, earned praise from American Songwriter, Glide, Parade, and more, and landed on NPR Tiny Desk Judges’ Picks - all before signing their first record deal with Nettwerk Music Group in 2022.
Over the years, the group has fine-tuned their approach to making music and being together on the road to the point of codifying a signature set of “rules for how to be a band.” Wimbish notes these rules maintain “good boundaries and foster better relationships, better shows, and overall better conditions amongst the crew.”
They’ve developed a devout fanbase thanks in part to their renowned raucous and rowdy performances. They have lit up festival stages and crisscrossed the country with The Oh Hellos, RIPE, Tall Heights, and Sammy Rae & The Friends, to name a few.
Ultimately, the musicians open their community to anyone in search of one. “I hope you feel validated and empowered when you listen to us,” he leaves off. “We have a community with each other in this band, but everyone who comes to see us or listens is part of that family. It’s all about strengthening those relationships. We’re here for you.”

Evan Bartels
Evan Bartels comes from a town of 100 people. Tobias, his hometown, is found on a lone stretch of highway that cuts across the Nebraskan prairie. It is a place that offers immeasurable freedom, while threatening a life of unanswered wanting. Here the sentiment behind his most recent album, Lonesome, was forged.
Recorded over two days at The Sound Emporium in Nashville, and produced by Ryan Hewitt (The Avett Brothers, The Lumineers), this set captures intimate moments of self-actualization upon a stark American landscape. With a haunting and powerful vocal performance, Bartels delivers a poignant collection of songs that take an unflinching look at the deepest parts of our human experience. Amongst those clamoring for attention in the digital age, Evan Bartels is a timeless and prophetic voice that demands to be heard.
