Monday Music: Teenage New Artist You Need to Know: Lorde
Dear Friends,
She is all over the airwaves and she recently was the special in-studio guest at KCRW: meet Lorde, just sweet 16 years old and conquering the pop world from her home base Auckland, New Zealand. And yes, she's in 12th grade, finishing Grammar School. Just a side note to Jaden Smith!
"New Zealander singer/songwriter Lorde is already being compared to the likes of British soul singer Adele with her iTunes and Spotify top 10 hit "Royals." Lorde's story is pretty cool… at a mere 12 years of age, she was basically "discovered" much like an actress back in the glamorous golden age of Hollywood by a talent scout and signed barely 2 years later by Universal Records. "Royals" is a laid back super sumptuous mildly disco flavored groove with a colorful tale both sung and spoken and woven over, then buttoned up neatly with a showroom worthy hook. This version is a very nice slightly funkier remix by "Magnifik." Already a favorite amongst my clients! See you on the dance floor! " ~ DJ Matt Cornwall
Goes to show you: real talent has no age!
Happy first week of autumn!
Janet
