This is part two of a two part interview, be sure to listen to part one to hear about Candy’s wild years!
In the early 90’s, Candy Eisenhauer had sobered up and was looking for a new outlet in life. Taking her love of music, she opened CD Warehouse on 80th Street in 1996. Shortly after that, she joined the Kiwanis Club of Western Kenosha – within six years, she would become president of the organization and this led to the first Taste of Wisconsin in 2008.
In 2022, things took a turn. It was announced that that summer would be the last Taste of Wisconsin and by the end of the year, Candy announced she was closing her store.
But.... in what feels like a the plot of some feel-good movie, 2023 brought back both the Taste of Wisconsin – and CD Warehouse! The latter now in a new location at 2529 75th St (click here for more). With Candy’s blessing (and her inventory) former employee Nate Cucciare reopened the store, telling Candy that it wasn’t time to say goodbye to this legendary music store.
This interview was recorded on July 15, 2024 at the A+ Mobility Recording Studio – home of Ktown Connects!
