“Whew. I'll tell you what, man. A song called "Aurora" by Ella Faye really, really made an impression on me. Young students just getting together in a room on a couch and just harmonies that just blew you away.” - Bobby Carter, NPR
““Aurora” wears its influences openly and skims between the boundaries of pop, jazz and old-fashioned folk. Anchoring it all is Ella’s voice, which is potent but unshowy – until a breathtaking excursion into an upper octave that concludes with a Mariah-worthy vocal run. The performance earned her a mention on NPR’s “Top Shelf” series highlighting standout Tiny Desk Contest entries from around the country.” - Amelia Mason, WBUR
