The band was so tight, it was easy to forget they were playing live. On stage a four piece band and three female vocalists provided a formidable backing.
#DELIRIUM ELLIE GOULDING TOUR FULL#
Playing to a full arena, we were treated to a show which focused on the singer and the songs. There was a cheer of recognition at the beginning of every track as the audience sang and danced along. Ellies ability to both write and perform great pop songs was evidently clear. The Delirium tour draws on the album of the same name, and a few old (and new) favourites besides. Bursting with hits and joined by special guests Years & Years, these shows will be a blockbuster display of showmanship and raw talent.It may be towards the end of a long year of touring for Ellie Goulding but tonights show, the second and final one in New Zealand, felt fresh. Having thrilled Australian and New Zealand audiences time and time again, Ellie Goulding’s arena Delirium World Tour promises her most exhilarating performances to date. As well as appearances at Radio 1's Big Weekend, Wireless Festival, T in the Park and Latitude Festival, the guys set Melbourne and Sydney stages ablaze when they performed Splendour In The Grass sideshows in July of last year. Gold charting single in NZ ‘King’ has gone platinum in seven countries with Billboard calling it “destined to be played at arenas for years to come.” Synth-soaked follow-up single ‘Shine’ achieved Gold certification in their UK homeland where it also soared to #2 on the Singles Chart.
An intricate balance of mediative lyrics and undeniable hooks, Communion references house, r&b and electropop and has seen the trio win the BBC Sound of 2015 poll and a Critics Choice nomination in the 2015 Brit Awards. In addition to an outstanding Grammys performance this week, the Brit Award winning singer-songwriter collected high praise for appearances at Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Glastonbury and an intimate, one-off show she performed at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre in October of last year.Įllie’s special guests will include UK electronic virtuosos Years & Years who have quickly impressed with darkly romantic debut album Communion (out now through Universal Music). Last month Ellie served the one-two punch of ‘Army’ and ‘Something In The Way You Move’, the former a sweeping ode to authentic friendship and the latter an irresistible thumper - both tracks have critics applauding Delirium as her finest album to date.Īlongside solo chart scorchers ‘Anything Could Happen’ and ‘Burn’, Ellie recently teamed with Major Lazer on the reggae-tinged smash ‘Powerful’ and collaborated with Calvin Harris on the multi-platinum selling singles ‘I Need Your Love’ and ‘Outside’. The next cut from Delirium was ‘On My Mind’, a swagger-charged anthem that reasserts Ellie as one of music’s most surprising and confident performers. An expansive and dazzling collection of genre-defying bangers, Delirium scored immediate acclaim and climbed the top ten in no less than 14 different countries.ĭelirium’s first offering was the Grammy-nominated chartbuster ‘Love Me Like You Do’ that swiftly broke the world record for most streamed song in one week, skyrocketing to #1 in 80 countries including both Australia and New Zealand where it was certified double and triple platinum respectively. Frontier Touring is thrilled to confirm that global phenomenon Ellie Goulding will bring the Delirium World Tour to Australia and New Zealand this September and October for her biggest shows to date! Joined by very special guests Years & Years, Ellie is set to electrify arenas in Christchurch, Auckland, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.Ĭelebrated as a force to be reckoned with for her first two albums Lights and Halcyon, Ellie Goulding firmly cemented herself as a superstar with the release of third studio album Delirium (Universal Music) in November last year.
