AURORA

Aurora Aksnes, known as Aurora (styled as AURORA or ΔURORΔ), is a Norwegian singer-songwriter. His debut EP "Running With The Wolves" was released by Decca Records in May 2015.

Aurora's first track "Puppet" was released in December 2012, followed by her second, "Awakening" in May 2013.[11] Her first single signed to her labels Glassnote Records and Decca Records, "Under Stars" was released in November 2014, and "Runaway" followed in February 2015. "Runaway" achieved success in the UK on streaming service Spotify, reaching 1 million streams after just 6 weeks. The track was also received positively by various online music blogs and national press such as the NME. While maintaining some of the themes and stories of the previous album, this production would mark the first time that Aksnes makes inclusion of political and sexuality themes in her songs. Most of the new inspiration for those came from the interaction that she had with her fans during her first musical tour. The music video for "Queendom" saw its release in May 2018, and it included a message to her LGBT fans; such message was portrayed by Aksnes herself kissing one of her female dancers, during what was described as a "big kissing party" that shows that "every type of love is accepted and embraced" in the singer's "queendom". On September 28, 2018, the singer surprisingly released the first half of her second album on EP format, under the title Infections of a Different Kind (Step 1), while "step 2" would follow either 2019 or 2020. The EP features eight songs, and the title itself comes from the eighth track included on it, which Aurora declared as "the most important song I've ever written". Shortly after the release, the singer and her band went on a musical tour that started in Manchester, UK, headlined by Cub Sport.
