Inspired by the spiritual Sanskrit translation for a flawed but radiant ruby,
KURUVINDA reveals a journey to embrace imperfections, reminding us that every crack is part of our brilliance.
We are all imperfect gems.
““Kuruvinda stands as a luminous continuation of Copely’s legacy - embracing the raw, unpolished sides of life and transforming them into radiant beauty.””
““...light a candle, take a breath, and let this record wash over you like a wave that knows exactly where to land. Kuruvinda...is the soundtrack to your becoming.””
“one of the genre’s most consistently engaging, boldly honest and heartfelt releases of 2025.
