Candlebox

This Seattle, Washington USA-based act was formed in December 1991 by vocalist Kevin Martin, guitarist Peter Klett, bassist Bardi Martin and drummer Scott Mercado.

The Alternative-Rock quartet, which was less influenced by the grungy sound, debuted with 1993's self-titled album, the record became a surprise success, reaching #7 on The Billboard Top 200 chart; three singles, "Cover Me", "Far Behind" and "You", ranked in the top 10 of The Mainstream Rock chart; the band spent the next two years touring extensively and in 1995 their debut album was certified 3 x platinum for sales of over three million copies; that same year Candlebox's second effort was released, but "Lucy" failed to replicate its predecessor's success, the record entered the top 20 of The Top 200 chart and its single "Simple Lessons" peaked at #5 on The Mainstream Rock Tracks list, "Understanding" also ranked in the top 20 in the same chart.
In 1997, Scott left the band, he was replaced by former Pearl Jam drummer, Dave Krusen; Candlebox along with the newcomer released one year later a new single, "It's Alright", in advance of the laboured "Happy Pills", the single became their greatest success in Mainstream Rock chart reaching the #3 spot, the title-track and "10,000 Horses" climbed into the top 20 in the same chart, but their third album didn't rise higher than #65 in U.S. Top 200 chart.
