The Rock Candies

The Rock Candies is an Ottawa-based songwriting duo composed of husband-and-wife team, Rob and Candace Kronen. The pair combine their individual backgrounds in poetry, songwriting, and musical performance to layer poignant, reflective lyrics on top of masterful instrumentation. Their music blends folk, blues, and old-time influences with some unexpected twists to create a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly innovative, which they fondly refer to as “doom folk.” 

In 2024 the Rock Candies released their EP, "See You On The Styx." This project delivers six tracks that highlight the versatility and creativity of the duo, featuring striking vocal harmonies amidst emotional musical arrangements. With this release, Rob and Candace continue to push the boundaries of their craft, inviting fans old and new to join them on their musical journey.

Currently, the Rock Candies are back in the studio creating a new album inspired by the world of mythology. The first single from the album is called "Ereshkigal (I Will Take You Down)" and was released on January 20, 2025.
