Lorde, “Tennis Courts”

If the internet is to be believed, “Lorde” is Ella Yelich-O’Connor, a 16-year-old from Auckland, New Zealand. She released her first EP, The Love Club, back in December (streaming on Spotify); she released a music video for “Royals” last month, which is like if the plot to The Bling Ring were a song. Last week she released a pair of new tracks, “Tennis Courts,” embedded above, and “Swingin’ Party.”

“She is currently in Year 12, attending Takapuna Grammar School on Auckland’s North Shore,” Wikpedia tells us. SAME.
