American singer, songwriter, producer, artist and poet. Lana Del Rey was born on 21 June 1985 in New York City, USA. Raised in Lake Placid, she attended Kent School in Connecticut to address her alcohol abuse. After graduating high school in 2003, she spent a year in Long Island where she learned to play guitar from her uncle.

In 2004, Lana enrolled at Fordham University in New York and studied metaphysics. It was during this time that her musical journey began. From 2005 to 2009, she had various music projects under different names like May Jailer and Lizzy Grant. Finally releasing her first album "A.K.A. Lizzy Grant" (2010) as Lana Del Ray – later changed to Lana Del Rey with an 'e'.

Throughout the years, over 100 of Lana's songs have been leaked through different media platforms; mostly demos and songs from the early stages of her career as May Jailer/Lizzy Grant.

Slow and low is the name of the game and no one’s sad shtick is more seductive than Madame Melancholia herself, Lana Del Rey. After her breakthrough Born To Die, Lana Del Rey honed her hazy noir sound and added depth and personality to her wayward character. Star-crossed lovers of porcelain fragile women and bullish men are still central to the story (a certain factor in choosing to reinterpret the eternal Romeo and Juliet’s Love Theme by Nino Rota for Old Money) but she finds the space to bite back on Fucked My Way To The Top, Brooklyn Baby and Cruel World. Where Born To Die felt hollow and a little bit, shall we say, formulaic, Ultraviolence is rich and patient. She also allows her voice break free from its timbre cell displaying a vocal range unheard before. She glides angelically on Shades of Cool and Sad Girl and sings with an aerated soft touch. Ultraviolence slow rush that overwhelms. The magmaic power of Ultraviolence seems innocuous but once it gets you it will destroy you.
