One of New Zealand’s biggest-ever musical exports will be playing Scotland this week.

Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O'Connor, better known to her fans as Lorde, found instant fame her 2012 debut EP The Love Club.

It contained the global number one hit Royals. which sold over 10 million copies, topping the US Billboard charts for nine weeks.

Her first full-length record, Pure Heroine, was similarly successfull and has been followed by another three critically-acclaimed studio albums, most recently this year’s Virgin.

Along the way she’s won two Grammy Awards, two Brit Awards, 20 Aotearoa Awards (New Zealand’s answer to the Brits) and been nominated for a Golden Globe.

Now she’s playing Scotland as part of her latest world tour. Here’s everything you need to know if you’re going along to the gig.

When is Lorde playing Scotland?

Lorde is playing Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on Wednesday, November 19. Doors will open at 6pm.

Lorde has announced two support acts for her Glasgow show. First up will be American musician, songwriter, record producer, and DJ Jim-E Stack, who has worked with the likes of Bon Iver, Charli XCX and Haim - as well as Lorde herself.
