Bride of Science is a nearly half century collaboration between multi-guitarist Mat Kastner and Norm Zamcheck.

College classmates, they met sophomore year, traveled southward after graduation with an eclectic rock band called “Milkweed,” and continued to jam together over the years. They had their Nashville debut at Douglass Corner Cafe in 2023. Over the years Mat, whose specialty is bluegrass and folk, has lent his gifts to nearly all Norm’s songs, and has contributed to nearly all of Norm’s 8 album releases over the past decade.

Accompanying them is Andrew Livingston, on upright bass. The trio is named after one of their songs, a ditty loosely based on "Frankenstein" by Mary Shelly, and also Norm's mother, wife of a world renowned scientist.
