Kalandra is a Norwegian/Swedish quartet that blends melancholic Nordic influences with gritty guitars and ethereal melodies, crafting haunting musical landscapes rooted in raw emotion and cinematic depth.

Formed in 2011, the band has spent over a decade shaping a sound that is uniquely their own—building a dedicated studio space, refining their musical identity, and supporting acts such as Leprous, Gåte, Wardruna, Heilung and Eivør.

Following the success of their 2020 debut album The Line and their atmospheric soundtrack for the video game Kingdom Two Crowns: Norse Lands, Kalandra returned in 2024 with their second album A Frame of Mind. Drawing from their years of growth and collaboration, the new record is their most expansive to date—showcasing versatility while staying true to the immersive soundscape that defines them.

A Frame of Mind invites listeners on an introspective journey, reflecting on how life’s experiences shape our perception of the world. The album explores what we choose to include—and exclude—within the frame of our everyday lives, revisiting memories of hardship, childhood, and the growing uncertainty of the future.

With performances at major festivals like Hellfest, Kalandra continues to expand their audience across Europe. In 2025, the band is set to play their first Australia tour this November!

RiUvEn... exploded out of Toxteth Liverpool, in a blaze of goth battering and ganja smoke in early 2006. For Liverpool, a city not known for producing exciting rap acts, Riuven’s Unrelentingly harsh and unmistakably scouse approach was a revelation. Discovering his flair for rapping after grabbing the mic at a special brew and skunk party, Riuven has gone on to be a cult figure in his home city despite just a handful of live performances and even less sightings of him on the mean streets of Liverpool. Always elusive, RiUvEn's popularity came through his Myspace page where songs such as ‘What lad’ and ‘The LIV’ had tens of thousands of plays and were soon being Bluetoothed around the city. Producing tunes at a rate of knots, disses such as Lily Rich kid Allen were immediately pinging around mobile phones. That tongue-in-cheek attack on the London singer even caught the attention of the national press. Undoubtedly funny, the ‘your ma’ jokes, weed references and casual misogyny hide a social commentary of a city where many teenagers pass the time by joyriding, taking drugs and generally misbehaving. In Nike Air, a baseball cap and never more than a burglary away from an , Riuven is every bit a kidder with the ability to spit fire. Concerning himself with pastimes such as scoring skunk and screwing the dole,Riuven is a mysterious figure not often seen in public. A string of upcoming court appearances might also be helping him to stay indoors. RiUvEn @ Echo Arena - Liverpool The Musical
