In Focus brings you a talented upcoming artist that has earned a spot on our radar. We’re scoping out these rising stars from every city, style, and scene.
IN FOCUS: Lorde
WHO IS LORDE?: Ella Yelich-O’Connor
HAILING FROM: New Zealand
DIG IT IF YOU LIKE?: Feist, Lana del Rey (these artists also have angel voices)
WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?: For one, she’s still a teenager and is already signed to Universal Music. Need we say more?
YES, we need, because you’re about to hear a lot more of Lorde’s smooth & silky angel voice. She’s crazy-talented, and we hear she’s only 16. Lorde‘s songs on SoundCloud get hundreds of thousands of plays, and her debut EP The Love Club, released in September 2012, was downloaded over 66,000 before it was out on iTunes and Spotify. Lorde might be magical.
UPCOMING: Currently selling out shows all over New Zealand, let’s hope Lorde makes an appearance in the US soon.
