Released: 20/10/23 Candidate are a beloved cult band known for their eclectic blend of folk, alt-rock, and lo-fi experimentation, drawing comparisons to CSNY, XTC, REM, and The Bet a Band. Formed in the late '90s, they rejected the mainstream indie spotlight in favor of creative independence, co-founding their own label and producing idiosyncratic projects—including the acclaimed Nuada, a reimagined soundtrack to The Wicker Man featuring Bert Jansch. Now, with Point Clear, they return to celebrate connection and the joy of making music on their own terms. Show more
