AURORA has returned with the brand new single, "The Flood".
“This is a song about the invisible enemy. What brings you anger, what brings you worry and sadness. What makes you crawl into yourself instead of meeting the world fully. A song about searching for someone or something to blame, when you know perfectly well that the only solution lies within yourself,” AURORA explains.
AURORA will perform six extra arena shows in the UK & Europe leg of her world tour, headlining her sold-out show to date at London's OVO Arena Wembley on 3 May.
"The Flood" is out now via Decca Records.
