Lorde posted a mysterious “Solstice” short video on her official website on Sunday (June 20).
In the clip, Lorde, dressed in beige and posed by a floral arrangement on the beach, appears to be meditating until she focuses on the camera with an intense stare. The only sound is that of her natural surroundings. The video is captioned with just the word “Solstice.”
No information about what this visual might be previewing was given, but for what it’s worth, the summer solstice occurs Sunday night at 11:31 p.m. ET.
Earlier in the week, Lorde shared another teaser ahead of her upcoming third studio album, Solar Power: a silent video that had the camera swooping over a wide grassy expanse and zeroing in on a giant crop circle that spells out the album’s initials in tall grass.
She recently told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe that she wanted every song on the album to “sound like the sun,” and said its tracks would remind listeners of “the beach, the waves, the girls lying on the beach.”
“Solar Power,” the lead single and title track of Lorde’s new album, arrived on June 10.
Take a look at her latest teaser below.
