AURORA JANE

ON THE ROAD 24/7... Australian artist Aurora Jane has a story like no other. Her music reflects the vast distances she travels, spanning diverse genres, but residing most comfortably in a funky, rootsy groove.
Sharing stories while she’s on the move between the Australian desert, India, Europe & North America, Aurora Jane’s songs display an insightful global perspective, yet retain a breathtaking intimacy.
Once described as “the secret lovechild of Jimi Hendrix & Ani Di Franco”, this fiery- haired, guitar-wielding songstress impresses audiences worldwide with her energetic live shows and refined studio recordings. Aurora Jane’s latest album “Universal Language”, was recorded in Byron Bay, Australia & New Delhi, India.
Headlining the famous ‘Roots Festival’ in North East India in both 2006 & 2007, saw Aurora Jane play to live audiences in excess of 20, 000 people, alongside local & international acts, and Grammy-award winning chant-master “Lama Tashi”. Yet Aurora Jane’s biggest live show to date was back in 2004, when she headlined “World Music Festival Ladakh’ to a live TV broadcast audience of 1 billion
Aurora Jane likes to keep good musical company. Massive Change, her ever-evolving band will feature the talents of Tim Bennett (Bass), Dan Brown (Keys), & Rebecca Flatt (Drums) for the PUBROCKFEST2008 India Tour. Massive Change recently featured the talents of Nat Pa’a Pa’a (Blue King Brown), Mel Watson (Fruit), Arjun Sen (Indian guitar virtuoso), Ember Swift and Lyndell Montgomery in the studio on “Universal Language”.
Over her ten year career Aurora Jane has proudly shared the stage with: John Butler Trio, Pete Murray, Blue King Brown, Fruit, Diana Anaid, Mal Webb, Lama Tashi, Rachelle Van Zanten, Little Birdy, Lior, The Beautiful Girls…
Taking time out from a busy tour schedule, Aurora Jane regularly facilitates music workshops on remote Aboriginal communities as part of “Music Outback”. Celebrating music as the ultimate cross-cultural communication device has long been a passion of hers. Back in 2002 she travelled to East Timor, recording and producing music documentaries for ABC Radio, Radio National & Triple J about the role of music in East Timor’s struggle for Independence.
Experience Aurora Jane. Distinctive. Organic. Progressive. Funky. Rootsy.
“Real music for real people.”
