Kalandra is one of Norway's most distinctive international music exports, building a global audience through a unique blend of Nordic folk, alternative rock and cinematic soundscapes. With their cover of Wardruna's "Helvegen" on YouTube in 2019 going viral, and reaching over 7 millon views to date, the international interest in the band has continued to grow. The band currently reaches around 417, 000 monthly listeners on Spotify, while their debut album The Line has surpassed 47 million Spotify streams. Their Kingdom Two Crowns: Norse Lands soundtrack has added more than 20 million streams, demonstrating Kalandra's ability to reach audiences beyond the traditional music scene. Playing Hellfest, tours across Australia and Europe, and support slots for artists such as Heilung, Wardruna, and Leprous, Kalandra has built a strong international reputation. Their high anticipated third studio album "The Other Side" will be out the Friday the 13th of November 2026, and takes the listener on a exploring journey through dreams, nightmares and the unconscious. Following a series of vivid and recurring dreams over the past few years, vocalist and songwriter Katrine Stenbekk, together with bandmate Jogeir Daae Mæland, began exploring the world of dream analysis. Keeping a notebook by the bed, they started writing down fragments of dreams the moment they woke. Those scattered images, emotions, and subconscious narratives gradually became the foundation for a new collection of songs. The music drifts through warm, dreamlike landscapes where distant voices seem to lull the listener to sleep, before slipping into surreal passages that blur the line between dreams and nightmares. Throughout the album, Kalandra explores the mysterious imagery of the subconscious-where memories, fears, and imagination quietly intertwine. Inspired by years of vivid dreams and dream journals, Kalandra's new album explores the fragile boundary between sleep and waking. Moving through warm, ethereal soundscapes and unsettling nightmares, moving through their dynamic blend of grand Nordic landscapes and hard-hitting alternative rock. With a distinctive artistic identity, strong streaming figures and a growing international presence, Kalandra demonstrates how a Norwegian band can achieve global success by turning a deeply Nordic musical expression into something that resonates worldwide. "The Other Side" will be available as a CD digipack and 12' vinyl gatefold black and oxblood (distribution exclusive) with gold hotfoil and digital formats.
