Lorde encourages New Zealanders to vote + promises to release music in 2021.

Lorde has returned to her social media today in a bid to remind her fellow New Zealanders of the importance of voting in the upcoming election (on October 17th!)

She shared a series of stories detailing information about how to enrol and vote in the election and two referendums, saying in one: "We know we live in a special place. And adding all of our voices to the conversation, speaking up for communities or organisations that mean something to us - that's what helps us keep it that way."

She also said "next year I'll give you something in return," teasing that she's been working on new music.
