about

Nora passed away in November 2020 after a 6+ years of living with cancer.

These recordings were taken from a vast cache of voice memos and iPhone videos. She’d record herself while she was working on something, and when she felt she had it, she stopped making recordings. They are demos, and there are some imperfections.

Her intention was to record most of these songs with a full bluegrass band in the summer of 2020, but the Covid-19 pandemic, and later her illness, derailed that.

Since Nora passed, the Nora Candey Songwriting Grant was established with the help of the Oregon Bluegrass Association. The OBA is a volunteer-run, 501(c) (3), non-profit that has been around since 1982. The purpose of the grant is to help others further their pursuit of writing original music, and to give back to a community that meant so much to her. All proceeds from both physical and digital sales of her recordings will go the grant fund.

Download includes full lyrics and liner notes.
