CALIFORNIA BREED, formed in 2013, initially consisted of bassist and vocalist Glenn Hughes, guitarist and vocalist Andrew Watt, and drummer Jason Bonham. The band released its self-titled debut album, via Frontiers Records, in May 2014.

Then in August, Bonham left the group due to "professional commitments," and was replaced by Joey Castillo.

Earlier today, a message on the official CALIFORNIA BREED Facebook page read, "The band is over...what a logo though right?"

Andrew Watt elaborated further on the situation by saying, "To the California Breed fans here...I put everything I had into this band...all I can say is I was in it for the long hall...I have a lot of new music for you guys...going to be announcing my plans soon...I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you supporting us, buying our music, coming to our shows...this is not the end...it is truly the beginning...cannot wait to continue the quest to bring rock n roll back to the people that are hungry for it...what an amazing learning experience for me here and introduction to an amazing world of people and fans that share love for the same thing."
