The early 90s in Charleston, South Carolina. How were they? Would be nice to know.

I just found an archival Soundcloud account by a band called Glass Candle Grenade that was active between 1989 and 1991. That’s an original name I thought but it seems there was an Atlanta band of the same name.

The songs we find are “Christopher by the Sea”, “Hush”, “Me Descending”, “His Addiction”, “He Comes Around”, “Yesterday’s Prophet”, “City of Lindas”, “A Promise” and “The Ends & The Means:”. We also find “She’ll Never Tell (demo)” and “Christopher by the Sea (Acoustic demo mix)”.

And also live recordings from the Club Dog Alley. These date from the fall of 1990. These live songs are “What Would I Give”, “Bittersweet”, “Oceanfall”, “Yesterday’s Prophet”, “Spellbound”, “Anything & Everything”, “Destiny” and “The Ends & The Means”.

Sadly they don’t share who the members were or any other details about the band. They just want the music speak for itself.

I would love to know more. I think for example the song “Hush” sounds like an indiepop hit. Why am I only listening to it now? Songs like this should be well known!

Anyways… yes please, any help in shedding some light on the band would be ace.
