Певица, композитор, аранжировщик, автор поэтических текстов и просто красавица Кэндис Найт (р. 8 мая 1971 года, Нью-Йорк, США) ранее записывала партии бэк-вокала для " Deep Purple", " Rainbow" и "Twang". До поры до времени она оставалась в тени для большой аудитории, но не для зоркого гитарного рыцаря Ричи Блэкмора, который еще в 1989 году заприметил годящуюся ему в дочери прекрасную сладкоголосую блондинку (знакомство произошло на радиостанции "Long Island", где Кэндис вела свое шоу). Бросив в очередной раз разборки с " Deep Purple", Блэкмор в 1993 году вернулся к сольным проектам, из коих отнюдь не " Rainbow" (кстати, Кэндис выступила как соавтор 4-х композиций на альбоме "Stranger In Us All" 1995 года), а "Blackmore's Night" стал для него главным.
Семейный дуэт решил делать программу, соединяющую традиции музыки Возрождения, среднеевропейского фольклора и элементы поп-стилистики. Увлечение американки Кэндис кельтской культурой и старинной музыкой было разделено бывалым рокером Блэкмором, покорно сменившим свой Fender Stratocaster на акустическую гитару и забывшим о вдохновенных соляках на электрогитаре ради изящного аккомпанирования и виртуозных сольных номеров в средневековой "классической" манере. Впрочем, Ричи Блэкмор, с удовольствием принявший образ менестреля, поклоняющегося прекрасной даме, и сам давно уже интересовался культурой Средневековья и Возрождения.
В ансамбль также вошли высококлассные музыканты, некоторые из которых предпочли скрыться под псевдонимами: Сэр Роберт из Нормандии, басист, гитарист и бэк-вокалист; певица и композитор Леди Вита; перкуссионисты Майк Соррентино и Сквайр Малколм, клавишник Кармин Гигльо и мультиинструменталист Крис Девайн (электрическая и акустическая скрипка, мандолина, флейта, клавишные). Сир Роберт ранее продюсировал "Backstreet boys". Леди Вита ранее выступала в Нью-Йорке в качестве вокалистки, гитаристки, а также автора прекрасных композиций. Майк Соррентино играл ранее во многих группах, таких как "Zebra", "Kid gloves", "Toybox", "Wonderama" и др. Гигльо окончил высшую музыкальную школу и записывался со многими артистами и группами в качестве сессионного музыканта. Крис Девайн получил высшее музыкальное образование по классу скрипки, хотя играет на множестве инструментов. При его участии в качестве сессионного музыканта записано более ста дисков разных стилей, включая классику, джаз, кантри, фолк и поп.
Дебютный альбом "Blackmore's Night" 1997 года "Shadow of the Moon" был благосклонно принят поклонниками и достиг 14 места в хит-параде "Billboard", оставался 17 недель в чартах Германии и стал "золотым" в Японии. Альбом был полон прозрачных гитарно-акустических звучаний, изысканных в своей бесхитростности фолк-напевов, мечтательных любовных баллад, воинственных маршей и пружинистых жиг, перекличек задорных бубнов, дышал свежестью и искренностью. Среди треков присутствовала всемирно любимая "Greensleeves", а также обработка темы из "Лебединого озера" Чайковского. На флейте кое-где подыгрывал Ян Андерсон из " Jethro Tull".
Последовавший за ним в 1999 году "Under A Violet Moon" по идее был очень близок первому, порадовав широкую общественность интерпретацией русской народной песни "Полюшко-поле" и страстными псевдоиспанскими танцами с кастаньетами. Группа много гастролировала, давая костюмированные выступления в старинных замках, церквях, драматических и оперных театрах. В июле 2001 года увидел свет третий релиз от "Blackmore's Night" "Fires At Midnight", отличавшийся от предшественников лишь легким японским колоритом в одной из песен и чуть большей, чем прежде, ролью электрогитары.
