Lana Del Rey
Elizabeth
Woolridge Grant (born June 21, 1986), better known by her stage name Lana Del
Rey, is an American singer-songwriter. Raised in upstate New York, Del Rey
moved to New York City at age eighteen, where she attended college and began
writing music and performing in clubs.
In
2008, Del Rey contracted with an independent label and recorded a self-titled
debut album which was briefly available on iTunes in 2010; Del Rey ultimately
bought back the rights to the album and it was withdrawn soon after.
In
June 2011, she released the song "Video Games" on the Internet,
accompanied by a self-made music video that went viral in the following months.
The song was later released as a single in October, leading up to Del Rey's
major-label debut album, Born to Die, which was released on January 31, 2012
through Interscope Records. Born to Die debuted at number one in seven
countries, including the United Kingdom and Australia. The album has spawned
two worldwide top 10 hits: "Video Games" and "Born to Die".
Del
Rey's music has been noted for its cinematic sound and its references to
various aspects of pop culture, particularly that of 1950s and '60s Americana.
Del Rey has been described as a "self-styled gangsta Nancy Sinatra",
and cites Britney Spears, Eminem, and Antony and the Johnsons amongst her
musical influences.
