aurora

aurora is the sophomore album and international debut by American singer Bea Miller. The album was released on February 23, 2018 through Hollywood records.

The album features the tracks from her 3 EPs, blue, red, and yellow, alongside 5 new tracks: motherlove, outside, girlfriend, bored, and crash&burn.

Miller had teased the new track names on her Instagram prior to the release of the album.

In a Interview with TeenVogue, Miller talked about what was different with making her debut album compared to working on this album by saying

What was different about the first album is that I didn’t write it. My label said “We think you’re cool and have stuff to say, but you’re new to the industry. We’ve been doing this for so long so just put out a record we think is going to work.” I was 15 and of course, I rebelled like “No, this isn’t my vision!” But they said, “If you do this now and pay your dues, your next record you can do what you want.” And they kept their word! This album is the real Bea Miller. But I also don’t think in the past I was ready to be that, and now I’m ready to be here with all my walls broken down. Aurora let me figure out what the f*ck I was supposed to be doing. I was almost teaching myself through writing without even realising it. It’s like therapy. You can hear my progression as a person and how much happier I became, which is really cool for me to hear because I’m proud of myself."
