Lorde made her special appearance this week during the encore of Williams’ set, in support of his 2020 album release Plastic Bouquet, a country collaboration with Kacy & Clayton.
Williams has been tagged as the “impossible love child of Elvis, Roy Orbison & Townes Van Zandt,” and is arguably best-known to U.S. audiences for his on-stage role in the 2018 hit film A Star Is Born.
Lorde (born Ella Yelich-O’Connor) has had the world at her feet since “Royals” ruled the Billboard Hot 100 for nine weeks and set a new record for the longest streak atop the Alternative Songs chart by a woman. Back in November 2019, she hinted that her third album was “in the oven.”
