Battle for Bratfest: An Electrifying Night of Music!

Our first show with lead singer Carlos Buhain at Battle for Bratfest was a blast.

Last Saturday, Dumpster Fire took the stage at Sunshine Studios Live for the Battle for Bratfest, a competition to secure a coveted spot at the legendary Bratfest music festival in Madison, Wisconsin. This was our first show with our new lead singer, Carlos Buhain, and what a show it was!

The energy was electric as we shared the stage with four other incredibly talented bands from the Colorado Springs music scene. While we didn't advance to the finals this time, we had an absolute blast. Seeing the crowd cheering, singing along, and having a great time made every minute of preparation worthwhile.

Battle for Bratfest was an amazing opportunity for us to introduce ourselves to the Colorado Springs music community and showcase our unique brand of high-energy rock.

We're already looking forward to our upcoming shows and bringing that same energy and passion to the stage for you all.

Rock on!

Dumpster Fire Welcomes New Lead Singer Carlos Buhain!

Carlos Buhain joins Dumpster Fire as our lead singer after fronting several bands in Hawaii and opening for major national acts such as Warrant, Ratt, Quiet Riot, and The Tubes.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that the electric Carlos Buhain has joined Dumpster Fire as our new lead singer.

Carlos brings a wealth of experience to the group, having fronted several bands in Hawaii, including Sister Suicide, where he opened for national acts such as Warrant, Ratt, Quiet Riot, and The Tubes. Sister Suicide was even offered an opportunity to tour Japan.

Beyond his musical prowess, Carlos is a true artist with a unique and powerful voice. His passion for music is undeniable, and we are incredibly excited to see what he brings to Dumpster Fire.

Music has been a steady thread through his life's journey, from his youth growing up on the small Pacific island of Guam to his move to Colorado Springs in 2021. He started out playing guitar and drums before finding his voice and fronting several bands in Hawaii, including Sister Suicide.

We believe Carlos is the perfect addition to the Dumpster Fire family, and we can't wait to share the stage with him. Get ready for an even more explosive and unforgettable Dumpster Fire experience!
