Airwaves

Welcome to Airwaves, where music takes on a whole new dimension. Founded by Tim Calcara, a pioneer in Christian radio, Airwaves is more than just a band - it's a force of positivity and change. With a legacy rooted in a musical journey, we've harmonized our talents to create a symphony of impact and connection.

Our Journey: A Musical Legacy of Compassion

The tale of Airwaves starts with Tim Calcara, whose deep-rooted love for music and compassion for others sparked a musical journey like no other. Following his time performing with his sons in Turkey as the band "Emergency Landing," Tim returned to Iowa with a vision - to recreate the joy of performing with family while supporting local charities and spreading awareness.

A Symphony of Goodness: Music for a Cause

Since our inception in 2012, Airwaves has been using its platform to uplift those in need. Our concerts have become rallying points for support, benefiting local food pantries, non-profit organizations, and survivors of human trafficking. We've harmonized the power of music with the strength of community to shine a light on hunger in Eastern Iowa and the triumph of those who've overcome adversity.

Musical Magic in Every Note

Airwaves has graced many stages, leaving a trail of melodies and memories. From city festivals to county fairs, local wineries to breweries, we've woven our musical tapestry across Iowa. You might have caught us at the Freedom Festival, Marion By Moonlight, or witnessed the Balloon Glow at Brucemore. Regular performances at Cedar Ridge Winery and Millstream Brewery have become traditions that celebrate unity, diversity, and the magic of music.
