The Lorde Australian Tour 2014 has expanded, with extra dates added to the Kiwi sensation’s trek next month due to overwhelming demand.
The two-time Grammy Award-winning singer has already seen ‘Sold Out’ signs placed on her shows at Melbourne’s Festival Hall and Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion moments after the box office officially opened today. To meet the demand, second additional shows have been added in both cities, with a new show to take place at Festival hall on Saturday 26th April and at Hordern Pavilion on Saturday 3rd May. Tickets for the new shows are on sale now.
Since first emerging just over a year and a half ago, Lorde’s list of accomplishments in that short time are numerous and significant. Chiefly thanks to a string of hit singles, from the global-dominating ‘Royals’ to ‘Tennis Court’, ‘Team’ and more cuts from her million-selling debut album Pure Heroine.
A few Grammys and a Brit Award later, along with critical praise from everyone from Kanye Bowie, Lorde is returning for another headline tour of Australia this April/May (reneging on previous reports that she’d scrapped tour plans in favour of dates with the American market).
In Australia, the stats also reflect her enormous popularity: three spots in the top 15 of theHottest 100 (including a #2 position for ‘Royals’); 6 x Platinum recognition for Royals/The Love Club EP and 2 x Platinum for Pure Heroine; over 16 million Spotify streams (making ‘Royals’ the most streamed track in 2013); and an acclaimed spot on the 2014 Laneway Festival.
Lorde’s brand new show – which includes a killer light show and a few surprises along the way – has been attracting amazing reviews since it kicked off in the US this week, and given her sold out success Down Under on previous visits, don’t expect tickets to these all-ages shows to last.
