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!

Hey guys. What's going on? I was just wondering that when you come back to the swamp in fort walton beach this year that if you could please have the show be on a thurs, fri, sat, or sun night so I can make the show w/o a problem. It would be greatly appreciated. I absolutely love your music.
Sucked for me having to miss the show at Rockstarz out here and friends got to go to it and I had to hear about it from them. Been listening to the album with "You" and "Far Behind."
I have loved your music from the beginning and I can always, ALWAYS count on you to have something for me to listen to that will make circumstances better long enough for me to figure out what to do about them.
How can anyone not love you for that reason alone?
Needless to say you Kevin have a divine delivery when you sing. The boys are awesome musicians and can carry the song right along with you.
I love the CANDLEBOX tenacity!! I hope to hear you live one day soon.
This is so awesome! Last year I heard you for the first time on the radio station Jack Fm 97.1 located in Burbank California!! They don't take requests so it was a pleasurable shock to hear you on the radio after listening to you for over3yrs on myspace. THIS YEAR Jan 2010, I was at the Guitar Center in Pasadena purchasing an acoustic drum kit and "YOU" was playing in the store!! I LOVE that California is embracing CANDLEBOX!! I am going to insist The Roxy have you comeback! I LOVE CANDLEBOX =D Sincerely, Yvette hugs to all
Hope 2010 is going well for you. Thank you for being our friend and supporting our Troops.

Just wanted to say you guys are "AWESOME". I have never enjoyed a concert more than yours in Laughlin this past weekend. Besides your amazing voice, you made my sons day when you took the time to tell him Happy Birthday. Not once did you tell him but you remembered again later in the evening. I have been a fan of yours for years and now my son is. We had to drive 5 hours to go to the concert and your concert was well worth the drive. I would do it again in a hearbeat. And there was no way security was going to ruin that. lol Love you guy.....Peace out!!! And keep keeping it real.
