Less than a month after recruiting SZA, Khalid, and Post Malone for a remix of her “Homemade Dynamite” track, Lorde has just announced the opening acts for the upcoming North American leg of her ‘Melodrama’ tour.
Run the Jewels will serve as openers for the full 31-stop, month-and-a-half-long trek, while Swedish electro-pop singer Tove Styrke and indie-rock singer Mitski will join the rap duo for select cities. See the announcement and dates below.
The news comes just days after Lana Del Rey announced that she’ll be bringing along Jhene Aiko and Kali Uchis for her ‘LA to the Moon’ tour, and that Kendrick Lamar recruited James Blake for his own ‘DAMN.’ outing.
See the dates below.
