Starting Her Journey

Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O'Connor was born on November 7, 1996, in Takapuna, Auckland. Before she found her interest in music, she was honing her public speaking skills at the age of five and became a part of a drama group. She also used to play netball with her friend, Eliza McCartney who later became a professional athlete and won the bronze medal at the Summer Olympics in 2016.

In 2009, Lorde decided to team up with her friend, Louis McDonald and competed in the Belmont Intermediate School annual talent show which they won. In the same year, the pair was invited on Jim Mora’s radio show, ‘Afternoons’ where they performed their takes on Kings of Leon’s Grammy winning song, Use Somebody and Pixie Lott’s hit single, Mama Do (Uh Oh, Uh Oh). By 2010, Lorde and McDonald had formed a group, ‘Ella & Louis’ and they began to play shows regularly. During this time, she was signed to UMG for development and was given vocal training by Frances Dickinson. Soon, Lorde started to write her own songs and later, she partnered with the former lead singer of Goodnight Nurse, Joel Little and the two recorded a five-song EP.

In the fall of 2012, Lorde began to work on her first extended play, ‘The Love Club EP’ which she uploaded on SoundCloud for free download. It generated a great response which led to the UMG releasing this EP commercially on March 8, 2013. The extended play brought her mainstream success and was certified seven times platinum in Australia. It peaked at the twenty third spot on the Billboard 200 and was nominated for the World Music Award under the category of ‘Best Album.’ It also received 3/5 stars from AllMusic.

Raising the Bar

‘The Love Club EP’ earned Lorde hordes of fans from every part of the globe who started to wait eagerly for her to drop new music and on September 27, 2013, she did just that by releasing her first studio LP, ‘Pure Heroine.’ The record set the bar high for debut records and was included in Rolling Stone’s ’50 Best Albums of 2013’ list. It also made it to the Billboard’s ‘The 20 Best Albums of 2010s (So Far)’ list and was nominated for a Grammy Award for ‘Best Pop Vocal Album.’

‘Pure Heroine’ topped the charts in her native New Zealand and was certified three times platinum in Australia and the United States. It also spawned hit singles including, Tennis Court and Team out of which the former appeared in the Golden Joystick Award winning video game, ‘Grand Theft Auto V.’ The track was also praised by Sir Elton John who described it as, “one of the most touching, beautiful things on earth.” Team was used in an episode of ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ and was awarded multi-platinum certification by the RIAA. On top of that, it landed at the first spot on the Adult Top 40 and won the New Zealand Music Award for ‘Single of the Year.’  

A year later, Lorde was given an important task to curate the soundtrack for the film, ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.’ Apart from her, many stars contributed to the record including, Stromae, Chvrches, Tove Lo, Charli XCX, Major Lazer, Raury, Tinashe and The Chemical Brothers. It ranked at the eighth spot on the Rolling Stone’s list of the ’20 Best Pop Albums of 2014’ and received 77/100 rating from Metacritic. In 2015, she was approached by the electronic music group, Disclosure to feature on the song, Magnets. It debuted atop the Dance Club Songs and was included in the duo’s sophomore studio effort, ‘Caracal’, which came out on September 25, 2015.
