One of the better new artists to break big is Lorde. Lorded comes out of New Zealand is a very mature 16 years old. Her first album/EP, "The Love Club" is rich with the textures and while moody is very catchy. She comes across to me as a new Cowboy Junkies. The production is very good and while "Royals" is the hit. There are some amazing songs elsewhere on the album.
Similar to Goyte, the main song Royals, has caught fire and is played almost non-stop on radio, streaming and wherever you listen to music. But also like Goyte, if you don't buy the complete EP you'll be missing the full Lorde experience. Love Club and 40 LUX are just a couple must listens on this EP.
She has already released a LP in 2013 called Pure Heroine. It's newer but very similar to the first EP. It will be interesting to see if she can continue to inspire and release hook rich tunes as she had already. Whoever is behind the scenes is doing a great job producing her music and getting the best from her moody and depressing tone. Because somehow it sounds inspiring and you can't help but sing along.
