Creative Castle Presents is a grassroots arts initiative based in Indiana, dedicated to celebrating music, storytelling, and local talent in all its forms. From intimate songwriter showcases like The Local Bards, to the rotating community vibe of Open Mic & Pints, to the high-energy fun of Singabunch Karaoke—we create spaces where people can share their voices, connect, and belong.

In addition to hosting community-centered events, we also provide booking services for venues seeking live music and for artists looking to find performance opportunities. We help match the right performers with the right spaces, strengthening the local creative ecosystem from both sides of the stage.

Founded by musician and community-builder Derek Chastain, Creative Castle is more than an event series—it’s a movement to strengthen the artistic spirit of our region. Whether you're performing originals, singing your favorite cover, or just showing up to cheer someone on, you're invited to be part of something real.
