Aurora is that bright light observed in the night sky, usually in the polar zone. Similarly, Aurora is band who can definitely shine brightly. Though merely starting out, this group which is composed of talented individuals has been practically living their lives through music.

Franco does not only know how to sing but can play the drums, guitar, piano, violin and, the trumpet too. The rest of the band, Cookie, Philip and Kyle are all music majors from UP College of Music and UST Conservatory of Music, and have been playing for other artists for quite some time now. Cookie has played sessions as bass player for 6cyclemind, Lani Misalucha, Mojofly, Mulatto, and Luke Mejares among others. Philip has played for Ogie Alcasid, and Guji Lorenzana, while Kyle has also played drums for Gloc9, Luke Mejares, and Malik (for the Sunday noontime show SOP).

Aurora has come together to make their own music and share it to the continuously flourishing music industry. With alternative music as their focus, Aurora continues to write their own material while warming up to the music crowd through constant exposure on bar productions and some event invitations. They successfully released their single, “Kamay” on RX 93.1 last January 12, 2009 from their debut album entitled, PRAISE AND PROMISES OF TWENTY O’ SEVEN.

Now they are busy promoting their newest single “Iwas” which entered MYX Pinoy Countdown and receives gratifying radio airplay.
