Lana Del Rey closed out the first night of Hangout Music Festival on Friday night by bringing out Jelly Roll for a duet cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Sweet Home Alabama.”
Taking the stage together, the two delivered a loose and lively rendition of the 1974 Southern anthem, with some ad lib interjections, like when Jelly Roll shouts “We love you Lanita!” For her part, Del Rey changed some lyrics, skipping over the “Southern Man” reference to remind the crowd that Neil Young “squashed that beef into the ground.”

For the song’s more controversial verse, both Del Rey and Jelly Roll seem to have a gaff on the lyrics, awkwardly missing the timing for the George Wallace lines but sticking the landing to come together in unison for “Watergate does not bother me.” That aside, going into the repeating refrain of the chorus, it...

Lana Del Rey brought out Jelly Roll at Alabama’s Hangout Festival festival to perform Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Sweet Home Alabama” as the summer of unlikely onstage duets continued Friday.
Just a week after the country star popped up during Limp Bizkit’s Welcome to Rockville set to cover the Who’s “Behind Blue Eyes” and two weeks after he shared the Stagecoach stage with T-Pain, Jelly Roll joined Del Rey during the encore of the latter’s headlining set to help out on the Southern rock group’s ode...

When Lana Del Rey announced the track list for Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, the collaborators on it — her longtime friend Jack Antonoff, rapper Tommy Genesis, and classical pianist Riopy, to name a few — immediately made fans curious about what the album would sound like with so many styles and sonic influences.
The final result, which she released last week, is a stirring reflection of Del Rey’s life and musical journey, mixing hip-hop production with jazz, classical, and folk touches. This project revels...

“I’d go on a seven-minute rant with a repetitive melody,” Lana Del Rey recently told Billie Eilish in an interview about her writing process for Did You Know There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd. Indeed, many of the songs on her newly released ninth album do fit that description. They are long and can be repetitive, but truly, a rant has never sounded so alluring.
The six-time Grammy nominee, née Elizabeth Grant, returns this week with her latest album, two years on from a double release in 2021 (Chemtrails Over the Country Club and Blue Banisters). Across eight records and 11 years, Del Rey has built a world and iconography of her own. Hers is one of cherry cola cans, white sundresses, sycamore trees, seedy dive bars and American flags that fly both defiantly and depressingly. More controversial in the Lana lexicon are the deadbeat boyfriends with fast fists that feel like kisses.

Lana Del Rey’s new album Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd is out now via Interscope and Polydor Records. Stream it below
First announced last December, the album is Del Rey’s ninth full-length offering, and first since she dropped two records in 2021, Chemtrails Over the Country Club and Blue Banisters. Returning to a sound and vibe more akin to her earlier work — particularly 2019’s Norman Fucking Rockwell! — Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd is another vehicle for the 37-year-old’s signature neo-Americana storytelling.
Produced by Jack Antonoff alongside Mike Hermosa, Drew Erickson, Zach Dawes, and Benji, the album features more collaborations than a typical Del Rey release. Antonoff’s band Bleachers, Father John Misty, Jon Batiste, Tommy Genesis, and celebrity pastor Judah Smith all make appearances.
In her review, Consequence’s Mary Siroky writes: “Ultimately, for another sonically cohesive record,...

Lana Del Rey’s ‘Did You Know There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd’ Is Her Most Soul-Searching Album Yet
Early in Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, Lana Del Rey highlights a sermon from megachurch pastor-to-the-stars Judah Smith. In the most Del Rey fashion, it was clearly recorded on her phone during a service — you can hear her and a friend’s giggles bump up in the foreground, above Smith’s projecting voice and a piano instrumental that keeps it moving. Smith proselytizes about love and lust, reading from the Book of Psalms. His presence feels strikingly superfluous in the context of Del Rey...

“What can I say! I’m so grateful to be present and feeling effervescent today,” Lana Del Rey wrote in a typewritten letter late last year after announcing her new album Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd. “With a mind full of violets and a forehead warmed by the sun as I pray in the garden.”

No, that isn’t Lana Del Rey’s dad recreating her Norman Fucking Rockwell cover art — that’s Rob Grant debuting his very own album cover.
On Thursday, Grant — the father of the beloved “Video Games” songstress — announced that he’ll be releasing Lost at Sea, his first-ever album of piano songs, on June 9. He also revealed that he will drop the project’s first single “Setting Sail on a Distant Horizon” on Friday at midnight.

Lana Del Rey is back with an epic seven-minute song, “A&w,” from her upcoming ninth album, Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, out March 24 via Interscope.
The seven-minute track is classic Lana in pretty much every way imaginable, all bad love and Americana symbolism wrapped up the decision to turn a classic root beer brand, A&w, into an acronym for something else entirely: “Call him up, come in to my bedroom,” Del Rey sings on the hook, “Ended up, we fuck on the hotel...
