Lana Del Rey plans to release a country album called Lasso in September.
The singer-songwriter shared the news during a Billboard-hosted pre-Grammys event, where she was on hand to honor producer Jack Antonoff.
”If you can’t already tell by our award winners and our performers, the music business is going country. We’re going country. It’s happening,” Del Rey said. “That’s why Jack has followed me to Muscle Shoals, Nashville, Mississippi, over the last four years.”
Del Rey previously teased the album by uploading a snippet of new music to Instagram last month. “Last call, hey ya, hang his hat up on a wall / Tell him that his cowgirl is gone (come on and giddy up),” she sings on the untitled song. She also recently released a cover of John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”
Del Rey released her most recent album, Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd?, in March 2023. It’s nominated for Album of the Year and Best Alternative Music Album at this weekend’s Grammy Awards.
In the coming months, Del Rey will also headline a number of music festivals, including Coachella, Hangout Fest in the Gulf Shores, and Primavera Sound in Barcelona. You can purchase tickets to her upcoming shows here.
