Cori nora
Singer, multiinstrumentalist and producer Cori Nora makes music outside of sonic categories. Experimenting with vocals, keys, guitars and language she crafts captivating songs which ponder the depths of human nature.
Fall 2023 saw the release of her debut album «Flowers And Fences» which gained international attention and made the band play a wide spread album release tour through Europe.
«Flowers And Fences» is a hypnotic microuniverse that thrives on sonic textures, poignant lyrics and intriguing melodies. Like a warm shimmering ecosystem, bouncy clouds of synths, spring-reverberating guitars and alienated sax sounds flicker around Cori Nora’s voice. Wrapped up in this blanket of handcrafted sound Cori Nora sings of intimacy in the age of digital hyper-connectivity, the wish for shortcuts and analogies between two horses and the traps of touchscreen communication.
Cori Nora grew up in a musical family and plays bass, guitar, piano, banjo and cello. She has played, recorded and released music in different band settings before she decided to fully focus on her solo project. With one exception: Supernova Easy, the band around long time collaborator Nick Furrer aka Haubi Songs.
«A huge talent on the verge of something spectacular, we've had a listen to Cori Nora's debut album and it is an embarrassment of riches. Esoteric, but infinitely listenable, she reminds us a little of PJ Harvey, her music distant and yet so, so personal.»
