Lorde has confirmed a June 27 release date for her next Republic album, Virgin, which was preceded last week by the single “What Was That.” That track was co-produced by Lorde in tandem with in-demand hitmakers Jim-E Stack and Daniel Nigro and is augmented with a video filmed in New York’s Washington Square Park.
No other information has been revealed about Virgin, although Lorde is known to have recorded some of the music at New York’s Flux Studio. See the album cover below and click here to pre-order.
