Aurora Aksnes' first musical memories involve finding a tiny piano hidden in the basement and becoming enthralled by the sounds it created. Parents May-Britt along with Jan Oystein Aksnes encouraged her to study music, not for a career or hobby but for growth. She began writing lyrics of her own. She has cited renowned songwriters Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan in her influences, along with an affinity for Bjork's style. Her mom encouraged her to play her music in front of the public, but not to be famous, but in order to show others the importance of their work and what they can do for humanity. When she was six, she began to play the piano, and when she was nine, started writing songs. Her family didn't know about this until she turned 14. Aurora wasn't a childhood dream. The only thing she loves is writing songs. For her, the music she writes is how she feels about any thing.
