Aurora Aksnes first musical memory was discovering a piano at her loft, where she was amazed by its sound. The parents of her May-Britt family and Jan Oystein Aksnes encouraged her to study music, not for professional or as a pastime, but rather to gain experience. The singer began to write her own songs. Her sources include renowned writers Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan in addition to her love of Bjork's style. Her mother encouraged her to perform her music in front of the public, but not for the sake of trying to achieve fame, but rather to inspire others to realize just how important the music they compose and what they can do for the world. When she began playing the piano, she was six years old and began to write music by the time she was nine. She didn't tell her family about her musical journey until she was fourteen. Aurora wasn't a childhood dream. As she says, she loves writing music. She says that music is her most preferred way to feel anything.
