Having recorded one E.P demo featuring the songs Drive Me, Habitual and Help Me, the band are due to release their first full length album towards the back end of 2008.
Although the predominant style of music is heavy rock, each member of the band brings in their own musical influences ranging from Classical music, to Dream Theatre and from pop music to rap, hip-hop and folk!
Aurora-Project were originaly formed back in 2006 when the remaining members of the former band Redscar recruited guitarist James Smith. Since then the line up has remained as it is today, the only addition being the Hungarian "Utogardon" (beaten cello) which is played by Violist/Mandolinist Rob.
Aurora-Project are a very interesting, exciting and powerful band to watch live, and the wide range of influences make them appeal to a wide range of musical tastes.
