She is credited with Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen, along with Bjork as being her influences. In response to her mother's suggestion that she should not be aiming to become famous with her songwriting, but instead be aware of the significance of them as well as their contribution to society. The piano was first played by her when she was six years old and began writing music at the age of nine. They didn't even be aware until fourteen. Aurora was not a dream of her childhood.
