OUR STORY
It's a miraculous yet familiar tale...Group of friends form a band, work their asses off gigging around town, cut some demos, secure a recording contract, write a hit or two, emerge from local obscurity to global touring and sales success, hit a creative and interpersonal wall, disband, wander in individual obscurity for a few years, get back together, older, wiser, and produces the best effort of their career and does it all over again.
In this brave new, fiercely competitive world of evaporating record companies, digital downloads and MySpace-created rock stars, when artists are given a rare second chance, they know they must rise to the occasion. Candlebox disappeared but they have most definitely returned and this time, it's not the scene or the culture or the media doing the talking. It's the music. And that is miraculous.
That being said, thanks for stopping by. As some of you may or may not know our new record "Into The Sun" is out and in stores everywhere but if you can't find it at a store near you it's also available through the above online retailers and iTunes and most of the time a hella lot cheaper. That being said we have a favor to ask of you our fans and quite simply the reason that we are where we are today.
We need your help with our new single "A KISS BEFORE" at RADIO. Just pick up the phone, call your favorite radio station & MAKE THAT REQUEST! You gotta speak up if you wanna hear us in your town over your airwaves. For that matter pick up that phone and request all your favorite bands. If your favorite station isn't playing them then ask them WHY NOT? What have you got to lose.
You may be the sole reason that your favorite band makes it big. How do you think bands like CANDLEBOX got on your radio station or for that matter a band like Paramore or On A Dead Machine or Breaking Benjamin got on there? Someone just like you called in and said "I want to hear (INSERT SONG TITLE HERE) by (INSERT BAND NAME HERE) and I want to hear them now on my favorite station 99 point hell yeah or rock 1oh someting point WOO HOO." Speak up! and let them know what you want to hear. REMEMBER you have the power to hear your favorite bands, local and national, even if you feel like you don't. They will listen to you or they wont have any listeners!

Totally excited. My husband and I are coming to see you guys in Ft. Wayne this Friday night. This will be the third time this year. That is f'ing killer. I have so many stories to tell you guys this weekend : ) Bet you can't wait.
Kevin - don't think this is a radio show (believe it or not, I really did listen). Do you think you could do He Calls Home? I have been so lucky to hear every one of my favorite songs (although I love them all) over the past two years except this one. If I'm being too selfish -say so. I don't care what you play - just totally stoked to see you guys again.
Great show last night in Peoria! Probably the best show I've been to since you were here last in 1998. I even had to get out my old, worn out Candlebox shirt that is full of holes to wear to the show. Thanks again!
The show was awesome in Aberdeen last night!! Being in the front row especially!! Thanks Kevin for coming out and signing my CD and taking a picture with me! You were amazingly nice, and I really enjoyed meeting you! Come back to Aberdeen soon!!

Hey Candlebox friends. My little brother is right now waiting for you all to come on in Iowa. How fricken' cool is that? I'm so totally jealous. He just texted me and said, "I'm at a Candlebox concert - are you jealous?" You can imagine my reponse. Starts with an F, ends in a R and has 6 letters. Put on a great show for him as I know you will. This is his second time seeing you all - the first was in the wind storm in Dayton, OH. Love you guys!! Les
