Castronovo grew up in Salem, and was a high school band member himself.

“That was the only reason I stayed in school. I was terrible in every subject except band,” Castronovo joked on the phone with Fox 12 recently.

Castronovo is out of state on tour, but when a longtime friend from Salem told him about the fire he knew what he had to do. “I called my wife and asked her if we could do this and if she’d be on board with me,” he said.  “And instantly we (agreed) – yeah, it’s the right thing to do.”
