Tomora Unveils New Dance-Pop Sound: Aurora and Tom Rowlands on Their Exciting Collaboration
The acclaimed Norwegian singer-songwriter Aurora and Tom Rowlands, one half of the iconic Chemical Brothers, have officially joined forces, merging their names to form Tomora, an exciting new dance-pop duo. Their collaboration promises a fresh and imaginative sound that's already generating buzz.
So far, their creative partnership has unfolded seamlessly, prompting playful speculation about whether future touring demands will necessitate separate accommodations. The two members of Tomora are currently focused on preparing for their inaugural live performances, highlighted by a much-anticipated appearance at this month's Coachella festival.
Tom Rowlands, celebrated for his role in the Grammy-winning electronic powerhouse The Chemical Brothers and now part of Tomora, admits to some apprehension regarding the upcoming shows. "We're still figuring things out," he shares, "and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, thinking, 'Oh my God, what's happening?'"
In stark contrast to Rowlands' anxiety, his new musical collaborator, Aurora, remains remarkably composed. The experimental Norwegian pop artist, barefoot and cheerful, states serenely from the floor of their north London label office, "I carry no stress within me." She shrugs, asserting, "My constant thought is: everything will be fine." Even facing significant challenges, she quips, "Yes, the house might be on fire, but we'll definitely find a way through it."
