Candura is a new Norwegian band that pushes genre boundaries and draws inspiration from across the world. Their music fuses elements from Brazilian styles such as MPB, bossa nova and samba with Italian disco, Turkish funk and modern indiepop – resulting in a distinctive sonic identity that is vibrant and warm. With tight grooves, intricate vocal arrangements, rich keys, detailed percussion and atmospheric textures, Candura creates a sound that feels both timeless and forward-looking.
The ambition is to build a musical world that feels fresh, sincere and inviting – a place for both emotion and escapism.
The band consists of experienced musicians known from a wide range of other projects, and will release their first double single this fall. The debut album is expected in 2026.
