"Like Summerteeth-era Wilco, RC's arresting debut is a smart-bomb stunner whose material moves with cool ease and crisp authority amid multi layered hooks and moods." -Jonathan Perry
“Sookie” could be confused for a Twilight Singers cast-off single, but that’s fine; it still paints one of the most perfect pictures of bittersweet I have ever heard. I’m almost convinced they wrote it for me personally. Wee Hours is a complete album laden with genuine lyrics, smart harmonies, and heartbroken pangs in the fade. Don’t believe me? Find an autumn roof and bring a sixer of your favorite beer and this album. You’ll thank me (and Roman Candle). Scott Darnell
Grayson Currin says:
"Roman Candle is one of the best, most complete American rock bands to surface in a decade ... After all, (they are) better at what they do--writing imaginative pop songs and building them into captivating four-minute Southern-air epics with the unleashed spirit of The Replacements and unorthodox intuition of Wilco--than any other "band on the verge" in memory."

Hey Skip and Logan and the rest of you guys, it has been a while! You guys have been a huge influence for me and my music and it would be awesome if you listened to some of my stuff. Will you guys be around Wilkes any time?.
Hey roman candle! Hope you're having a great summer!! Keep me in mind if you need any mastering done. Still only $25 per song and $100 for an EP, mix-tape, or full CD! Thanks!! Jim Wavelength MD
hey hope all is well! just put up a ton of work, adding hundreds of photos this week from the summer, i'm booking in the greensboro, north carolina area ONLY from august 1st through 17th would you be interested in working together?
I know you just put out a new album (which is everything I wanted out of your new album and if anyone reading this doesn't have it you just might be a facist) but I was having a Sticky Fingers listen last night and you all would kill a cover of Moonlight Mile. Just a thought....
