PHILADELPHIA (May 19, 2022) – Enjoy an exciting Labor Day Weekend filled with rock music when the iconic 90s alternative rock band CANDLEBOX hits the stage at the Event Center at Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia on Sunday, September 4, 2022.

Showtime is 8:00 p.m. Tickets start at $25 and are available for purchase now at Philadelphia.LiveCasinoHotel.com or AXS.com.

It’s a journey that began in 1991 in Seattle, where Candlebox formed, and soon thereafter, incited a record label bidding war in Los Angeles. The lineup went quadruple-platinum with their 1993 self-titled debut on Madonna’s Maverick Records and released two more acclaimed albums (1995’s Lucy and 1998’s Happy Pills). The singles “Far Behind,” “You” and “Cover Me,” became ubiquitous fan and radio favorites. But after nearly a decade of hard road work, the band went on hiatus in 2000. Candlebox then regrouped with a 2006 tour, putting out Into the Sun in 2008, followed by 2012’s Love Stories & Other Musings.

In 2016, Candlebox released Disappearing In Airports, a more classic rock driven album that many critics and fans hailed as their best work in years. The single “Vexatious” helped drive the record to the #9 spot on the Billboard Charts the week of its debut and spurred multiple U.S. and international tours including such major festivals as Carolina Rebellion, Welcome To Rockville and Lollapalooza Chile.

Wolves, the band’s seventh album, which debuted in 2021 at #7 on the Billboard Chart, is rife with brutal lyrical honesty and songs that run the gamut from dirty rock stompers to timeless, radio-ready pop-rock tunes. Wolves captures the live energy of a band embracing all its influences and coalescing them down into the most potent form.

The Live! Event Center is a new multi-use meeting, concert and event venue that features some of the nation’s best touring acts, comedians, championship boxing and other show-stopping entertainment at Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia. Upcoming headliners include:
