KEN CARTER’s previous careers were a paramedic and middle school science teacher. While researching the subject of bioenergy and pursuing certification as a Qigong practitioner, Carter found books on the theory of orgone energy. Along with his business partner, Bob Quintas, a 35-year veteran of physical therapy, they invented the RF BioShield, a unique invention that gives individuals protection from harmful devices that emit electromagnetic radiation in their home and business. The RF BioShield has been on the market for several years, and stops chaotic vibratory frequencies—from cell phones, computers, Wi-Fi routers, microwave ovens, televisions, cordless phones, and smart meters—and redirects the frequencies away from the body by a third generation orgonite. After sustaining a career ending injury, Ken began a life changing healing path. He healed his body, became a Level 3 practitioner of Emei Qigong, is a Level 1 BioCybernaut, sells a device for protection from electromagnetic radiation, and became an apprentice to an Apache-Sioux medicine woman.

CANDLEBOX CELEBRATES 25^TH ANNIVERSARY

WITH U.S. TOUR

Currently celebrating their 25^th anniversary, multi-platinum rock band Candlebox has not only withstood the test of time but, more importantly, they’ve withstood trends, trials and tribulations and come out stronger for it. Because for this hard-working band out of Seattle, the goal has always been the same – to create iconic music that would last a lifetime.

Taking their name after a Midnight Oil song, Candlebox burst onto the scene in 1991 with their debut, self-titled album that went on to sell more than four million copies, was certified four times platinum, and landed them in the number 7 spot on the Billboard Charts.

Their follow up album Lucy was also well received earning them a platinum certification and solidifying them as a tour de force in the thriving 90s music scene. The band would then go on to release Happy Pills in 1998, which would be their last album before their eventual hiatus in 2000.

The driving force behind Candlebox’s success has been their explosive live show and throughout their career, they’ve toured with such bands as Living Colour, The Flaming Lips, Our Lady Peace, Rush, Henry Rollins, Metallica and more. They were also a featured band on the main-stage at Woodstock '94 and made repeat live performances on the David Letterman show.

They are best known for the singles "Change", "You", "Far Behind" and "Simple Lessons". "Far Behind" from their debut album entered Billboard's Top 20 in July of 1993 and didn't drop off the charts until January of 1994. The videos for "Far Behind" and "You" were in seemingly perpetual rotation on MTV and became two of the most requested videos of 1993.

The band took a break from 2000 to 2006 and in 2008 the band reformed and released their fourth studio album called "Into The Sun". This meant their return since 1998's Happy Pills. Also, they released a live album called Alive in Seattle, which included tracks from all their past albums.

Candlebox then spent years touring and released their sixth album Disappearing in Airports, which debuted at #9 on the Billboard Charts and spurred many tours including a successful European tour. In January of 2018, the group kicked off their much-publicized “25 Years Of Rock & Still Rolling Tour” and announced two exclusive Seattle shows with all four original members, which sold out in minutes.

Kicking off January 25th in Grand Rapids, MI, this powerhouse band will perform the hits from the album that launched their careers including “Far Behind,” “You,” and “Cover Me” as well as offer a career retrospective by playing songs from the entire six CD catalogue all the way up to their latest release Disappearing in Airports.

To keep the tour fresh and exciting for fans, frontman and founder Kevin Martin decided to incorporate a variety of show formats and performance styles that would highlight the band’s dexterity. The routing comprises large venue concerts and appearances on such festivals as Rocklahoma as well as intimate acoustic dates that lend themselves to a story-tellers format.

“This tour is for our fans, those that have continued to support us for 25 years,” said Martin. “It’s been an honor to play for them throughout the years and we feel truly fortunate that our music continues to resonate with our audience. We can’t wait to hit the road for this one – I think people will be in for some big surprises!”

In addition to Martin, Candlebox members include Adam Kury on bass, Brian Quinn on lead guitar, Island Styles on guitar and Robin Diaz on drums.

DANIELLA SMITH

“What brought me to music was the longing to discover the most sincere part of myself, the part of me that is connected to everything and everyone… For me, music is about the freedom and power to create connection and communication between people. Creating from a place of purpose and love is what I’ve set out to do with my life and music.” 

Wandering through adolescence and young adulthood, Daniella eventually came to the realization that her unhappy aimless journey would continue endlessly until she overcame the overwhelming fear of committing to her childhood calling. In the age of child YouTube sensations and having no previous training in music, being an adult with aspirations to become a recording and performing vocalist on guitar seemed like the most daunting and frightening task.

Eventually however the prospect of starting from scratch, became less frightening than continuing through life burdened by the void of living without the musical tools of creative expression. In her mind there was no other option than to commit wholeheartedly to the path of an artist. Mustering the courage to forgo conventional living, she retreated to a simple, intentional life on a sailboat where she could focus on tackling the skills needed one by one. Piano, guitar, voice, songwriting and live performance. Her ongoing goal of mastery as an artist is a journey that requires drastic measures and intense commitment to reach.

Now 8 years into the journey of learning, practice, dedication and overcoming many psychological challenges related to the fear of failure, the classic “it’s too late for me,” she has boldly begun to share her experience through her music. Her songs are a reflection of her passion for balance, personal freedom, healing, and authenticity. Inspired by the magnitude of nature while living and recording aboard a sailboat, and a determination to prove to herself that it is never too late to live a life full of purpose, or to pursue one’s soul fulfilling dreams, her music ignites the love and peace we all aspire to feel.

Living simply and minimally on a small sailboat has prepared her for tour life on the road and also strengthened her passion for sustainable living.  As an advocate for healthy organic living and a role model for following one’s dreams, the purpose of her music and unconventional lifestyle is to keep herself and others inspired to live mindfully and passionately.
