AURA was formed in 1989, exact month is unknown. In December of 1989, they went major and released the single, "Dreaming Now". AURA released six singles and three albums from 1990 to 1992. AURA originally disbanded in 1992 due to poor record sells. The single, "Smile & Smile" was used for the anime City Hunter '91. After the disbandment, KoReds went to the band AZZ while Reds went solo. In the late 90's, Reds was apart of the band The Orange. During the mid 2000's, KoReds started the band Piranha with himself on vocals. KoReds also owns a recording studio called Ben Ten.



In 2006, AURA reunited and release a self-cover album and a live DVD. Everything was going all well and good until April 2007. On April 24, 2007, Pie annouced he was taking a little break from AURA due to poor health and decided to travel to the Middle East. They also did several three-man concerts with the bands test-No. and The Dead Pop Stars. Early 2008, Reds annouced that Pie decided he would no longer take part in the band. Sometimes, Reds and KoReds refer AURA as Aura-Pirates to not confuse them with other bands with the same name.



Big Will is AURA's second and most fan-loved album. It contains the singles "Smile & Smile" and "Just a Friend?...". AURA is one of those bands that sound how they look. So if you don't like happy, bouncy, melodic music, you will most likely not like AURA. Also, AURA set one of the fashion trend for visual kei in the 1990's, the over-the-top bright, cheerful and colorful image trend.
