Happy Pills

Candlebox

Polished Seattle rock with a soulful edge. Big choruses, bluesy guitar heroics, and raspy vocals that bridge the gap between grunge and arena rock.

It is the sound of the 90s growing up and getting a little more bluesy.

A resilient and soulful rock record that balances heavy-hearted reflection with high-energy defiance.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive vocal transition in 10,000 Horses where the grit in the delivery matches the surging guitar riff.
The way the bassline anchors the psychedelic leaning bridge of Blinders before the solo hits.
The soaring melodic resolution of the chorus in It is Alright that captures a rare moment of optimism.
