| Candlebox, the influential, multi-platinum rock band from the powerful ’90s Seattle music movement, will kick off its headlining U.S. tour tonight in Louisville, Ky.

Pete RG and Lullwater will perform in support. A full list of tour dates can be seen below.
Vocalist Kevin Martin commented: “We cannot wait to play these new songs from Disappearing in Airports to all of our amazing fans. Love you all. See you soon.”
Candlebox is touring in anticipation of its long overdue sixth album, Disappearing in Airports, which will release on April 22 via Pavement Entertainment.
Disappearing in Airports will be available on all digital platforms (iTunes, Amazon, YouTube Red, Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music) and distributed by MRI/Sony RED. iTunes pre-orders are live now at: https://goo.gl/xy96Zi with Instant Gratification downloads of “Vexatious,” “Supernova” and “I’ve Got a Gun.”

Disappearing in Airports showcases the group’s introspective and poetically candid songwriting with its signature musical immediacy. Candlebox worked with producers Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland (August Burns Red, Everclear, Rivers of Nihil), cutting the record at Think Loud Studios in York, Penn. With vocalist Kevin Martin, Dave Krusen on drums, Adam Kury on bass and the addition of guitarists Mike Leslie and Brian Quinn, the recommitment to creating music that is ‘pissed and urgent’ as well as bringing a new energy to the live show is at this record’s core.
“I want to take Candlebox into a new world, and this record is very different, very diverse for us,” said Kevin Martin. “It’s about growth and pushing the band in the direction for a new audience.”
