Music Monday: Lorde

Happy Monday to all! My apologizes for a lack of a Music Monday last week, but this week's artist is pretty darn good. Today I would like to talk about Lorde.

Lorde (her real name is Ella Yelich-O'Connor) is a 16-year-old singer/songwriter from New Zealand. She made her musical debut in late 2012, so she has not been around too long. Due to her novice status, she has only released one EP so far, titled The Love Club. Despite being fairly new in the music game, her single "Royals" debuted as #1 on the Australian charts. Rock on, sister. Rock on.

My friend Alexis introduced me to Lorde last week, and let me tell you I am so glad she did. Lorde is only 16-years-old, but she is incredibly talented. It blows my mind. She sounds like the super talented love child of Adele, Ellie Goulding, and Florence Welch. Oh, and did I mention that she writes all of her own songs? Here are a few songs by her, so give them a listen and enjoy!

Thanks for reading and have a rockin' week :)
