Candlebox
Love Stories & Other Musings, the fifth studio album from Candlebox (released April 3 on AudioNest/Fontana/Universal), evidences a newfound level of maturity for the band, formed in 1991 in Seattle. At the same time, listening to it with the volume knob cranked up emphatically reveals that frontman Kevin Martin, lead guitarist Peter Klett, drummer Scott Mercado, and their bandmates, remain filled with the youthful exuberance that marked their first go-round in the 1990s, a decade during which they ran off a string of alt-rock classics while selling north of 5 million albums
No modern-rock band combines aggression, melodicism and towering hooks more authoritatively than the current Candlebox lineup. They’re in peak form throughout Love Stories & Other Musings, from the unbridled dirty blues (as Klett refers to it) “Lifelike Song” to the cascading “Baby Love” and the throbbing, anthemic “Believe in It,” the first single.

The Last Good Year
Being crowned the winners of the 2007 "Indy Music Scene Battle of the Bands" and taking home $10K, after only a short time of playing together as TLGY, was one of the many accomplishments that lead to the release of The Last Good Year's self titled debut album. Spending most of 2007 developing their fan-base, The Last Good Year quickly became an Indianapolis favorite. Along with their win in the Battle of the Bands, they were voted into the "Best of 2007" as a part of the leading local art publication, Nuvo (www.nuvo.net).
Kicking off 2008 with a bang, TLGY opened up for Island/Def Jam recording artist Jon McLaughlin and hasn't stopped since. Along with McLaughlin, TLGY has shared the stage with Saliva (Island), The Elms (Universal) and American Bang (Epic); just a few among a power list of names. After a solid year of shows around the Midwest and beyond, 2008 proved to be a productive year for The Last Good Year.
