Lorde Lays Out Extensive ‘Virgin’ Tour Plans

Lorde will support her upcoming album, Virgin, with the two-leg Ultrasound world tour later this year, beginning Sept. 17 in Austin, Tx. The European segment of the jaunt will start Nov. 9 in Luxembourg and conclude Dec. 9 in Stockholm.

Among the opening acts are Blood Orange and Jim-E Stack, both of whom contributed to Virgin, as well as the Japanese House, Nilüfer Yana, Chanel Beads, Empress Of and Oklou. Tickets will be available for presale May 14 and to the general public two days later.

Lorde has been off the road for the past two years while working on Virgin, which will be released June 27 through Republic. Daniel Nigro, Fabiana Palladino, Andrew Aged and Buddy Ross also have writing credits on the project.

In a recent conversation with artist Martine Syms for Document Journal, Lorde described her mindset going into Virgin as, “I’m not going to put anything out until I’m in my body the way I know I’m supposed to be, to be able to do my work. That’s all I did the last four years, basically. This album is a byproduct of that process of fully coming into my body and feeling the fullness of my power. It’s cool to be back in that place of, like, the portal opening and the weight. I’m myself. All these parts of me are represented in a bunch of different ways. I’m not hiding from myself. I’m not stealing from myself.”
