In support and celebration of her new album “Melodrama,” Lorde appears on Thursday’s “Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”

The appearance marks Lorde’s first “Tonight Show” visit since the November 25, 2014 episode.

Like that visit, the Grammy-winning artist fills a dual role on the broadcast.

She joins host Jimmy Fallon for an interview before closing the show with a performance. In this case, she performs “Perfect Places” from her new album.

Taped earlier Thursday, the episode also features interviews with Ethan Hawke and “mustache experts” Russell Cordeiro and Allan Peterkin.
