On some other threads there was a bit of discussion about music to lift the soul and I thought I'd recommend Aurora. She is a Norwegian singer/songwriter who started writing songs around age 10-11; I think she is now in her 20s. I first discovered her singing with Wardruna on "Helvegen" (Road to Hel) and proceeded to go through most of her catalog online.

Her songs feature a lot of references to divinity, reincarnation, the importance of nature, with dreamlike lyrics, and her voice is amazing. I saw an interview where she mentioned that she dedicates each of her songs to a god or goddess. And if you are into videos, it's absolutely worth watching her live. The live versions are superior to the studio/produced versions of her songs.

She is definitely unusual and outside the mainstream. My family is not into her at all, but I thought some of the readers here might enjoy her music!
