In August 2009, long before she became ‘Lorde’, twelve-year-old Aucklander Ella Yelich-O'Connor and her band-mate Louis McDonald joined Jim Mora for a chat and to play a couple of songs live (guitar/vocal) in the Radio New Zealand Auckland studio.
The songs are: Mama Do (Pixie Lott cover) and Use Somebody (Kings Of Leon cover). [Musical content has been edited due to copyright restrictions.]
