CANDLEBOX: LUCY Second Studio Album (1995)

CANDLEBOX: LUCY Album cover

Lucy is the second studio album by Candlebox. The album was released on October 3, 1995. It was recorded in London Bridge Studio; Seattle, WA. Although the album did not fare as well as its 1993 predecessor, the single Simple Lessons received considerable airplay, and Lucy eventually achieved gold certification.

Four tracks from Lucy would be included on The Best of Candlebox in 2006.
Two additional songs were recorded during the Lucy studio sessions: Featherweight a B-side to the Simple Lessons single, and Steel and Glass, a John Lennon cover song released on the tribute album Working Class Hero: A Tribute to John Lennon.

Beginning with a brief European leg, touring for Lucy began in September 1995 and ran through June the following year. Tour mates included Our Lady Peace, Sponge, and Seaweed. On the October 2, 1995 edition of the Late Show with David Letterman, Candlebox performed their lead single, Simple Lessons.

Music videos were filmed for all three singles, Simple Lessons, Understanding and Best Friend. The video for Understanding, directed by filmmaker Gus Van Sant, memorably features the band underwater, including frontman Kevin Martin singing.
