AURORA DUBOIS started off her musical journey playing piano as a young child but fell in love with the idea of playing bass just a few years ago, when she saw In Rainbows Live in the Basement by Radiohead. She has been busy playing the bass ever since. Outside of Not Fade Away, she started her own cover band centered around the music of Kruangbin, she has joined an original post-rock group, and put together an all-girl funk/soul group.
