On their third studio album, III - Candles and Beginnings, the stars have aligned yet again. Propelled by the unique and celestial voice of Johanna Kurkela, the magical textures of Nightwish mastermind Tuomas Holopainen and the almost unlimited musical palette of Nightwish multi-instrumentalist Troy Donockley, Auri have presented a world to be unlocked with the senses.
They blend folk, progressive and symphonic elements, world music, pop, and avant-garde in a way that is truly mesmerizing. Each track, from the enchanting "The Space Between" to the haunting "Desert Flower," showcases the incredible talent and creativity of this unique musical trio.
