Regarding the decision to call it quits, Martin told SPIN: “I’ve always been kind of the reluctant lead singer of this band. All of the time I’ve spent with CANDLEBOX It has been obviously rewarding and enjoyable and the experience has been amazing, but when COVID hit, being home with my son and my wife was just eye-opening. It was everything I had realized I really wanted and had missed so much of.”
