   About Castle Bravo

Castle Bravo was formed in the spring of 2006. Castle Bravo was a merger of two other bands. Two members of the band Lotus Project (Chris-drums, Pat-guitar), and The Red Umbrella (Mike-lead vocals/guitar, Jesse-bass) came together in an unlikely, but powerful paring of hard rock, metal, pop, and alt-rock. The connection was a childhood friendship between Chris and Mike.

The name "Castle Bravo" came from a military exercise in the 1950's. Chris had seen recently released video footage of “Operation Castle”, and the testing of the 15-megaton bomb “Castle Bravo”. The US government had kept the details of the 1954 thermonuclear test a secret for 50 years. The footage left a lasting impression on Chris and the band…so much so, that it became the namesake. Today, Castle Bravo continues to perform, write and record music at their upstate New York studio, PsychWard.

Just got tickets to the Madison Square Garden Show! I had to trade my Isuzu Side Kick for them, but it was worth it! I'm so excited to see CB rock the MSG arena, it's going to be sick!
