Candice Night was an admirer of the band Rainbow and first encountered Ritchie Blackmore in 1989 when she requested his autograph while employed at a local radio station in New York. The pair began cohabiting in 1991 and soon discovered their mutual fervor for Renaissance music.
During the recording of the reformed Rainbow‘s album “Stranger in Us All” in 1995, Night contributed lyrics and backing harmony vocals, while the duo was simultaneously preparing their debut album. In 1997, the project, which initially served as a playful amalgamation of their names, involved themselves and a selection of session musicians.
Their inaugural album, “Shadow of the Moon”, achieved notable musical success and included Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull, who played flute on the track “Play Minstrel Play.” In subsequent albums, particularly “Fires at Midnight”, there was a pronounced integration of rock guitar elements, while still adhering to a folk rock aesthetic.
Over the years, Night has progressively taken on more instrumental roles alongside her vocal contributions, demonstrating proficiency with a diverse array of Renaissance instruments.
