Aurora Aksnes' first musical memories involve finding a tiny piano that was in her basement and bewildered by the sound it produced. Jan Oystein Aksnes was her father. They encouraged her not to do music just for fun or for the sake of growth but rather, she must explore it. To achieve this she started writing her own original compositions. In addition to Bjork She also cites Leonard Cohen as an influence. When her mother told her that the songs she wrote might not gain fame for her however, but to encourage people to realize the importance of their work and influence to our world at large, she began singing them in public. She started playing piano at the age of six, and began making music when she was 9 years old. This was not known to her family until she reached the age of fourteen. Aurora's success was never her goal. According to her, she simply loves writing music. She says that music is her most preferred way to feel anything.
