Maclachlan subsequently signed Lorde to UMG for development and paired her up with Joel Little, a songwriter and record producer.
Scott Maclachlan, an A&R executive of Universal Music Group (UMG), discovered Lorde upon witnessing her performance at her school talent show when she was 12. New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde (born 1996 as Ella Yelich-O'Connor) was interested in performing live at local venues around her home city of Auckland during intermediate school years. "Tennis Court" was included on the set list of Lorde's Pure Heroine Tour (2013–14) and Melodrama World Tour (2017–18). Joel Kefali directed the song's accompanying music video, a one shot in which Lorde stares at the camera throughout. "Tennis Court" earned platinum certification in Canada and triple platinum certifications in New Zealand and Australia. Elsewhere, the single achieved modest chart success throughout Europe and North America. It was a commercial success in Oceania, reaching number one in New Zealand and number 20 in Australia. "Tennis Court" received positive reviews from music critics, with some highlighting the song's production and lyrical content. Inspired by Lorde's fresh insights into the music industry, the lyrics address her newfound fame and nostalgia for Auckland. It combines alternative pop, art pop, and downtempo music over hip hop beats, minimalist synthesisers, and an electronic pulse. On the same day, the label released an extended play (EP) of the same name containing three additional tracks throughout Europe. Universal Music Group (UMG) released the song as the second single from her debut studio album Pure Heroine (2013) in Australia and New Zealand on 7 June 2013. She co-wrote the song with Joel Little, with production handled by the latter. " Tennis Court" is a song recorded by New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde.
