Growing up together, their home and life was full of music – a free space for creativity to bloom. Lea was always singing and being on stage felt natural to her. Samuel, on the other hand, was the more introverted type who geeked out on music production behind closed doors. He was in high school when he wrote his first song and when he finally had the courage to play it for Lea, they realized they had a special musicality between them - a sibling bond based on the same human values and an understanding of each other’s differences. ORA was born. This was a place for two young songwriters to share their worries, frustrations, opinions and honest feelings with each other through music that is a connection between two very individual human beings.

ORA, which is their grandmother’s name meaning “sunlight”, released a sketches-EP, ‘The Demos’, in 2022. ‘Bad Day’ is their first official release introducing an exciting new act to the Nordic scene whose sound and presence is as sparkly and bright as the meaning of their name – and more is to come from ORA in 2024…
