Candy Claws had just received some great press from P4K on their forthcoming album and this shizz happens to them. The Coloradoans were en route and poof. Their car goes up in flames and took their gear in the process on I-76. They still plan to tour, despite all of their gear going up in smoke. Their label, Two Syllable, has put together a pot that you can donate and help to replenish their gear. Talk about rat luck!
