Their persistence paid off when their 8-song demo tape gained the attention of Maverick Records
. On July 20, 1993, Candlebox released their self-titled debut album
. It sold more than 4 million copies and peaked at #7 on Billboard
's album charts. Candlebox featured the hit singles "Change," "You
," "Far Behind

in July 1993, peaked at #18, and stayed on the charts until January 1994. The tremendous radio, concert, and television success gained them a main-stage slot at Woodstock '94
and put Candlebox at the forefront of the 1990s post-grunge scene.
Hot off the success of Candlebox, the band was eager to progress and by April 1994 had 36 new songs for a follow-up record. On October 3, 1995, Candlebox released their second album, Lucy. Although it marked the beginning of a commercial subsidence, Lucy was certified gold thanks to singles such as "Simple Lessons" and "Understanding." Two days after the release of Lucy, Candlebox appeared on Working Class Hero: A Tribute to John Lennon
with their cover
of "Steel and Glass." Drummer Scott Mercado left the band the following year and was replaced by former Pearl Jam
member Dave Krusen
.
On July 21, 1998, Candlebox released their third studio album, Happy Pills. While a return to the simpler sound of their debut, it gained only marginal success. The song "Glowing Soul" was also recorded for the soundtrack to The Waterboy
and included at the request of Adam Sandler
. Inspired by the film, the song was based on a Bo Diddley
rhythm and recorded with vintage equipment.
The following year would be a turbulent foreshadowing in the band's career. Krusen departed from Candlebox in 1999 and was replaced by Shannon Larkin of Ugly Kid Joe
. Bardi Martin also left to attend college and was replaced by Rob Redick, formerly of Dig
. By 2000, Candlebox went on hiatus. According to Martin, the band was unhappy with their record contract and attempted to be freed from Maverick by disbanding. The label considered Martin the sole remaining band member, but after two years of disputes over recording an obligatory fourth Candlebox album, Martin was terminated. As of 2007, Martin has received no royalties from album sales since 2001 and won't until the fourth record is paid back. Other band members, however, do receive royalties.
The former Candlebox members would pursue other musical endeavors during the 2000s; in 2005, Kevin Martin recorded and performed as frontman of The Hiwatts. Peter Klett served as the leader of redlightmusic.

(Lifehouse
, Barenaked Ladies
) and features performances by both Scott Mercado and Dave Krusen
on drums. The first single, "Stand," was released to radio in mid-May and Candlebox officially commenced touring in support of the new record in June 2008. "Stand" reached as high as #15 on the U.S. Mainstream Rock chart.
On July 4, 2008 Candlebox performed at the O'Fallon, Missouri
Heritage and Freedom Fest in front of a record crowd. Two months later, the band released a live CD/DVD called Alive in Seattle.
