Roman Candle

Roman Candle is the name used by more than one band. One Roman Candle forms in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, in 1997 and plays a flexible, soulful style that ranges across alt-country and classic rock influences, drawing comparisons with bands such as Golden Smog, the Old 97’s, the Band and the Rolling Stones.

Another Roman Candle is an emo and screamo band from Las Vegas, Nevada. This group forms from the remnants of sowithout. and is a four-piece with Piper Ferrari on vocals and Jonas Vece on guitar, alongside drums and bass parts played by two unnamed members. Former drummer Bryson Drace leaves the band in 2024, and former bassist Nico Borgia is removed from the band in early 2024 after allegations of domestic violence and sexual assault against his former partner are brought to light.
