Music Daily’s Featured Artist, AURORA, is the artist who most captured the essence of nature in both her lyrics and music lines. This 26-year-old from Stavanger, Norway, has been reaching success via social media. Ever since Aurora Aksnes, famously known as AURORA, reached the public with her hit “Runaway,” the artist hasn’t been stopped.

AURORA

Genuine, elegant and profound, AURORA is part of the revolution in our new music era of TikTok. Introduced to the public mainly through this platform, AURORA was able to infuse pop in her folk melodies. The result is an emotional, refined and very catchy dream pop, to which we can’t resist but fall in love with.

Angelic, refined and “mystical,” Aurora’s voice is what makes all her releases unique and magical. Like the power of syrens, she captures the essence and meaning of her songs and transports the audience into her magical realm. Including nordic tribal and ancient themes, Aurora mixes pop references to the music of her Norwegian’s heritage. This is the artist to listen to when you want to live a fairytale. With her magical fairy voice, she is able to bring the listener to a side dimension where nature is in charge and a forest is what surrounds you. A wise mind inebriated with the curiosity of a child, Aurora is the type of poet that embraces the power of nature in all the verses and melodic lines of her art.

The Gods We Can Touch

The influence of nature is what stands out from her magical and angelic art. Authenticity and pure expression shine in the projects that the artist has been releasing since her debut in 2012.

Her conscientious spirituality exudes purity and positive vibes. Love, happiness and passion are the core of every release, and, in particular, her latest, The Gods We Can Touch. With singles like “Hunting Shadows,” “A Dangerous Thing” and “Everything Matters,” the singer elegantly conquered the hearts of her tens of millions of fans.

AURORA Released Her Second Book

Just last month, the singer revealed her process in her new book, What Happened To The Heart? AURORA shares pages from her lyric book(s), original artwork and photography. Check your local bookstores, not only to find the book, but also to see if she’s coming for a book signing. This week she hit Kiosk O-Thèque on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood just a day before her show at the Shrine Auditorium.
