Aurora has just one EP and some singles out so far, and ever since seeing her at CMJ in 2014, I've been eager for her debut album. Early next year, we should finally have it — as well as more chances to see Aurora live, as she plans on touring the U.S. in the spring.
Running With The Wolves is available now. iTunes:

We really need a new Tiny Desk Concert from Aurora, please.
-
She would be a great repeat guest. She's grown so much in the past few years.
-
I'm so in love with her magical brain. Her writing feels like great mythology and epic tales of adventure. She looks like this ethereal little forest fairy and then she opens her mouth and almost sounds like one until the lyrics hit you and you realize she is letting you in on something primal and dark and I dont even know. What a cool human being she is.
-
7 years later and this has to easily be a top 10 performance. That's why I keep coming back.
-
the way she gets lost her singing is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen
-
I love how after she finishes every song it's as if she's waking up from a trance or something
-
Who’s still listening in 2023? This is pure magic. Edit: 2024
-
I’m a 6’4 fully grown black man from a rough part of town and this… this made tears form in my eyes
-
Cant believe that O. Martin (the guitarist) is not mentioned in the description, he produced all these songs and co-wrote Murder Song as well
-
I love how she summons spirits with her arms when she sings.
-
She's pure magic. Everytime she sings her songs, you can tell she remembers why she wrote them. Stunning.
-
just a guitar and a voice, thats all her need to make me cry like a kid
-
she's a fairy. she's got to be.
-
The fact that she wrote the first song when she was 11.... it's mindblowing. she must have been the most mature child ever
-
So mad it's 8 years old and I'm just now discovering it?.. this is the serotonin I needed for the day.
-
Her body language was so mesmerizing ... like she was in a trance and suddenly woke up at the end of the song!
-
let's not forget her guy he's amazing too.
-
Shoutout to the dude btw. His harmonies are on point
-
37 year old black man who just discovered her a month ago. In no way my usual cup of tea but her artistry and the emotion out into it has made her one of my favorites.
