Guess the fuck what, everyone?
Someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who TOTALLY KNOWS Lorde…
TOTALLY asked me to tell YOU ALL that the white-hot New Zealand superstar has:
A) announced plans to release a vinyl version of 2017’s year-end list-dominating album Melodrama and the Infinite Sadness,
and 2) unveiled the 2018 North American leg of her “More Well-Traveled Than Jesus” tour next March and April.
#SoExcited!!! (Don’t tell my mom, though. She thinks the name “Lorde” is blasphemous.)
Anyways, here’s the deets, per my industry connections:
• the vinyl will be out April 6 and is available for pre-order right here.
• the stateside tour will feature support from Run the Jewels and can haz more infos right here.
#WOW!!!
Personally, I’m just feeling, like, so privileged to be in-the-know right now.
Speaking of which, did you know that she’s totally Bob Dylan’s niece?!?!
Just kidding. No she isn’t.
Sounds plausible though, doesn’t it? I mean, I could see her being Jakob Dylan’s little cousin for sure. She’s obviously just as talented as he is!
No, seriously! Just WATCH:
