Fundraising for Downriver

The Odd Fellow Concert Lounge

The Odd Fellow Concert Lounge

The Odd Fellow Concert Lounge is a not for profit / fundraising music venue brought to you by The Downriver Council for the Arts and Be Well My Friends. Our purpose is to cultivate local original music.




The Odd Fellow Concert Lounge Before Each Concert

The Odd Fellow Concert Lounge is a very cool and unique room in Wyandotte, MI.

Inside the Downriver Council for the Arts located at 81 Chestnut is this amazing auditorium built by The International Order of Odd Fellows in 1921. One Saturday of most months, Be Well My Friends transforms the auditorium into The Odd Fellow Concert Lounge. Four bands are invited to perform their own ORIGINAL music. Imagine your band on the stage performing for hundreds of live music fans.

The Odd Fellow Concert Lounge is NOT a full-time concert venue, bar, or night club. It is an auditorium that Be Well My Friends rents from the DCA to put on 8 monthly live concert fundraisers each year where the proceeds from the alcohol sales are donated to people, charities, and organizations of Downriver. We are a volunteer nonprofit with 6 volunteers, so please respect that we do the best that we can to bring you the best show possible every time. From what people are saying, we’re rockin’ it! Check out this article by Jim Kasuba about us in the local paper New nonprofit music venue in Wyandotte puts the spotlight on local bands – The News Herald.

Booking

We only book bands that play their own ORIGINAL music! Sorry, no cover or tribute bands. We book bands by INVITATION ONLY!! Due to only having 8 shows, we do not accept requests to be booked.
