With the release of her third full length album Delirium, British pop songstress Ellie Goulding has officially passed the pop-star mark. Whether it’s an ubiquitous Nike campaign or a hot movie single, Goulding is here, there, and everywhere. On Delirium, Goulding’s near-operatic vocals take a grandiose turn while she flirts with every vein of pop possible. There’s the 90’s references, the on-trend EDM, the checklist-worthy hit machines. It’s an undeniable mega-album that takes her from electro-folk sweetheart to mainstream dance-pop master ready to hit the club. While you can still catch Goulding’s signature jangly vibrato, it’s now mostly dressed up in big beats that you’ll have a hard time getting out of your head.
The Grammy-nominated singer will kick off her new world tour April 1st in Vancouver, B.C., before hitting Seattle’s KeyArena on April 2nd. If Goulding’s livewire performance headlining last year’s Bumbershoot festival was any hint, this tour promises to be a high energy, beat-driven concert you won’t want to miss.
