Lorde has announced the release date of her upcoming album Solar Power as well as dates for her 2022 world tour. The project will be released on August 20, 2021, with the shows beginning in her home country of New Zealand and spanning across Australia, North America, the United Kingdom and Europe. Tickets go on general sale on June 25; get more information, including dates for ticket presales, at Lorde's website.
“The album is a celebration of the natural world," Lorde said in a statement, "an attempt at immortalizing the deep, transcendent feelings I have when I’m outdoors. In times of heartache, grief, deep love, or confusion, I look to the natural world for answers. I’ve learned to breathe out, and tune in. This is what came through.”
Solar Power will get a physical release as a brand new format called a "Music Box." Billed as an "eco-conscious" alternative to CDs, the Music Box edition of Solar Power will come with "extra visual content, handwritten notes, exclusive photos, and a download car" with high-quality audio files and two exclusive songs.
