A @maybrumm yesterday he saw Aurora’s show and was intrigued by a gesture made by the drummer at the end of the show. He showed it to me and I decided to find out something about the boy. Looking at his instagram, I find an art made and posted by him in 2017. What was a doubt has become a certainty. pic.twitter.com/if2mDFXnpr

He even defended the musician against the allegations. “So let me say it loud and clear: no, Sigmund is absolutely not a proponent of these evil far-right views. His values are quite the opposite. He is one of the kindest and nicest people I have ever met,” justified the singer.
The musician also used Instagram to defend himself and classified the situation as “disturbing”. “First of all: of course I’m not a Nazi! My values are love and understanding, and I play music to spread these values,” he began.
“My priorities are – and always will be – to treat the people around me with respect and happiness,” she added. She also said she didn’t know the meaning of the gesture. “I didn’t know this sign meant something else, something negative, and I sincerely apologize if it was misinterpreted and found offensive.”
Aurora opened up about her neo-Nazi drummer. She has said that she is one of the nicest and kindest people she has ever met and that she does not condone far-right speech.
Damn, he’s got a Nazi tattoo, Nazi art, he makes a Nazi gesture, but isn’t he a Nazi? I let go of Aurora’s hand. pic.twitter.com/PJF39xvu24
