Kandle Osborne, professionally known as Kandle, is a Canadian singer-songwriter, based in Montréal, Québec. Kandle is the daughter of 54–40 frontman Neil Osborne. She is originally from Victoria, British Columbia.

Kandle got her start with The Blue Violets, a band she started with her sister Coral Osborne and friend Louise Burns. It was with them that she fell in love with songwriting and overcame her stage fright, building the foundations of her solo career.

In 2010, she met her musical partner and co-producer Sam Goldberg Jr. (Broken Social Scene, Yardlets) after he had approached her to take press shots for one of his musical projects. She agreed on the condition that he play on some of her songs she was recording. Kandle moved to Montréal to be closer to Goldberg Jr., and they soon founded The Krooks, featuring Jason Kent (The Dears, Sunfields) on bass and vocals, David Deïas on drums and Félix Dyotte and Tim Fletcher (The Stills) on guitars and keyboards. The Krooks became Kandle's backing band.
