Aurora Aksnes first musical memory was discovering a piano in her loft and being fascinated by its music. 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. They encouraged her to compose. Bjork as well as Leonard Cohen are among her favourite songwriters. The singer decided to perform her music in public when her mother said they can help other people, not to gain fame with her work, but instead help the people around them understand their importance and the ways they can affect the world. The piano was her first instrument, at six. She started writing music when she turned nine. The family did not have any idea about it until she reached the age of fourteen. Aurora isn't something she imagined as a child. The singer says that she simply likes to compose songs. The songs she creates are how she feels about any thing.
