Auri is a Finnish band composed of vocalist and violist Johanna Kurkela, keyboardist and backing vocalist Tuomas Holopainen, and guitarist, keyboardist and pipe player Troy Donockley. Holopainen and Donockley are also members of Finnish band Nightwish. Their self-titled first album comes out on March 23, 2018. Auri, the album, was recorded at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios.

Holopainen described Auri’s style as “rabbit hole music and celestial metal” with “influences from folk music, Celtic music, soundtracks”. Prog describes the band as prog folk.

The band’s name is based on a female character from Patrick Rothfuss’ The Kingkiller Chronicle:

“But what I can tell you is that some of the content and the song lyrics are inspired by the Patrick Rothfuss books. Maybe people who know those books and those stories will recognise some parallels and certain scenarios, but believe me; the album equates to so much more.
