Aurora

Aurora Aksnes (born June 15, 1996, at Stavanger) is a Norwegian music producer and a singer. Her debut E.P. Running with the Wolves is a May 2015 release from Decca Records. It has been praised by the music press and bloggers. Half the World Away from Oasis was released by the group Oasis was recorded to accompany an advertisement of John Lewis, and Nature Boy is an Nat King Cole cover. Katy Perry posted a video in which she endorsed Runaway. The endorsement earned her some recognition. It was her birthday. Aurora Aksnes' first musical moment was when she stumbled across a miniature piano hidden in the basement and bewildered by the sound it created. Jan Oystein Aksnes was her father. He urged her not to pursue music solely to have fun or for the sake of development but instead, she was encouraged to explore it. In the end, she began writing her own music. As well as Bjork, she cites Leonard Cohen as an influence. She began performing her music in public when her mother said they could help people not be famous with her work but to make people see around them realize their importance and the ways they impact the world. When she began playing the piano, she was six years old and started writing songs at the age of nine. This was not known to her family members until she reached the age of fourteen. There was no way she could have imagined to be Aurora. Aurora claims she loves writing songs. To her music, it is the best method of expressing anything.
