Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains ( C2B3 ) was a supergroup consisting of bassist Les Claypool , guitarist Buckethead , keyboardist Bernie Worrell and drummer Bryan "Brain" Mantia .
history
Les Claypool, bassist for Primus , among others , formed the band Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains with guitarist Buckethead, keyboardist Bernie Worrell and ex-Primus drummer Bryan Mantia, a combination of the names of the band members after the members joined the Bonnaroo Festival. Worrell, Mantia and Buckethead attended this festival to play with Bill Laswell in the band Praxis . Laswell was unable to hold the concert, so Claypool invited the rest of the members to jam with him. From then on, the concept of the supergroup continued to develop. At their other concerts they kept improvising without having prepared or rehearsed any material beforehand.
