Candlebox: Rock Band in New York

About Candlebox

Candlebox is a Seattle rock band associated with the grunge and post-grunge wave of the early 1990s. Their early catalogue produced enduring radio staples, including “Far Behind,” and they have continued recording across multiple studio albums while keeping a direct, song-first approach. In the New York area they’ve appeared at rooms like The Bowery Ballroom and Starland Ballroom, settings that suit their emphasis on ensemble drive over studio polish. On bills with peers such as Sponge, the shared lineage in plainspoken hooks comes into focus.
