Blackmore’s Night

Friday, July 05, 2024 @ 8:00pm



The Vogel
99 Monmouth Street, Red Bank, NJ 07701

Legendary guitarist formerly of Deep Purple and Rainbow, Ritchie Blackmore, and award winning vocalist Candice Night created a new genre of music for all ages…, inspired by many melodies of the Renaissance period, and Blackmoreized into contemporary music.  They call it Renaissance/Folk/Rock.  This is the sound of Blackmore’s Night.

In 1997, Blackmore’s Night released their debut CD, Shadow of the Moon, which immediately went gold in Japan and earned awards worldwide.  Meanwhile, their devoted fan base is growing exponentially as the band performs their mystical music for all ages.  From grandparents to children, everyone is enjoying their medieval mood music and gypsy dances.  Clearly, the music of Blackmore’s Night connects with fans on a deep level, allowing them to experience an entirely different era of merriment.

At the helm of this band, is award winning lyricist and vocalist, Candice Night, who not only contributes her unique, entrancing vocals, but deftly navigates seven medieval woodwinds, including chanters, shawms, pennywhistles and recorders.  Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and celebrated guitarist, Ritchie Blackmore, who traverses between acoustic and electric guitar, mandolin, mandola and hurdy gurdy.  Further enhancing the band’s inspired sound are keyboardist/back-up vocalist Bard David; Violinist, Scarlett Fiddler; back up vocalist/rhythm guitar, Lady Jessie ; bassist/rhythmic guitarist Earl Grey; and percussionist Troubadour of Aberdeen.  With lyrics penned by Night, the collective embraces the aura of the old world inn, from madrigals and ballads to good old fashioned Renaissance-inspired pub songs.

Additionally, every one of Blackmore’s Night’s studio CD has debuted in the top 2 of the Billboard charts, many of which entered or remained at the number 1 spot.  They have earned Awards such as “Best Album of the Year” “Best Vocal Album of the Year” and their sold-out concerts in castles and UNESCO sites worldwide are filled with thousands of fans dressed in Renaissance garb, dancing and singing as if time stood still.  No clocks…no pressure…just the gaiety and camaraderie of medieval pub.  Everyone joins in and loses their stress in the music.

2022 marked the official 25th Anniversary of Blackmore’s Night.  This year in 2024, they celebrate the 25th year of their 3rd CD, Fires at Midnight.  A 25th year edition of Fires will be released later this year.  In addition, a new Solo CD release from Candice Night is on the horizon.

Can’t wait for the new releases?  Join us this Summer as the mystical fires glow at midnight, to all our friends, fans, Blackmore’s Night Family, Grab your tambourine or your tankard of ale, and sing and dance with Blackmore’s Night “Under a Violet Moon.”  Let us transport you back in time to a magical evening with music that will brighten your hearts and soul.

The unique Troubadours, The Wizards Consort, will be opening the musical evening of concerts with Blackmores Night.
