CANDICE NIGHT
Upon hearing her music, or seeing her on stage, Candice Night feels like she’s from another time and place. She is whimsical and mystical, magical and free. Yet she’s also a woman who is dedicated to the authentic beauty of music and uses it to heal and to transport the listener to that place, along with her.

Night is an award-winning composer and singer who is currently spanning the globe to bring everyone who is bold and brazen enough to join her, into a universe of mysticism and modern-day fantasy; a world where legends transcend living and where people allow themselves to be catapulted to a place that doesn’t just exist in their dreams. Candace’s style, part Stevie Nicks, part fairy princess, has always been about being strong and mythological, while still holding onto her femininity.

Blackmore’s Night’s latest offering, Secret Voyage spent 78 weeks atop Billboard’s New Age Chart and has soundly established Night as a powerful artist and vocalist in her own right.

“I really want to pour so much positivity into the world. Our music gives them all-the father who loves the musicality of it, the mother who loves the romance of it and the children, who love the adventure and whimsy of it, permission to live in the joy of life.” -Candice Night

BLACKMORE’S NIGHT
When it came time to look for a career, Candice knew that she was destined to work in and around music. After working as on on-air personality for a local radio station, one day, as fate and timing would have it, the seminal rock band Deep Purple came to town for a charity event and legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore and Night connected on both a musical and personal level. Soon, Candice went from sharing her gift among friends to singing background vocals before a crowd of 15,000.

Feeling musically renewed, Ritchie left Deep Purple and gave birth to Rainbow, a band that he had founded prior and wanted to reform with a new sound that would feature Candice. After a #1 single with Rainbow, Ritchie formed a new group to spotlight the vocal and songwriting talents of Candice Night, currently known as Blackmore’s Night.
