Aurora Aksnes' earliest musical memories involve finding an instrument hidden in the attic of her home, then becoming enthralled by its sounds. Jan Oystein Aksnes, her parents, May Britt Aksnes, and Jan Oystein Aksnes, encouraged their daughter to take up music more as a hobby than as a job. For this reason, she began writing new compositions. Her sources include noted writers Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan, as well as her love for Bjork's style. When her mother told her that the songs she wrote might not be famous for her, however, but to encourage individuals to recognize the value of themselves and their impact on this world, she began performing them publicly. When she began playing the piano, she was only six and started writing songs when she was nine. It was unknown by her family until she reached the age of fourteen. Aurora has never imagined becoming a star. According to her, she likes to write songs. For her music, is the best means of communicating anything.
