Research on a artist similar to ours

Lana Del Ray

Elizabeth Grant - Lana Del Ray

Elizabeth Grant, born 21 June 1986, better known as Lana Del Rey, is a singer-songwriter from Lake Placid, New York, United States. Del Rey is known for embellishing her songs and music videos with an ‘eerily nostalgic’ vibe heavy on Americana themes, including images of surfing, Frank Sinatra, and Marilyn Monroe. I think that Lana Del Ray is fairly similar to our chosen artist in terms of these themes. Grant released her first professionally produced body of work in 2010, an EP entitled 'Kill Kill', as Elizabeth Grant via Five Points Records with producer David Kahne. It was available for purchase on iTunes for a brief period before being withdrawn for unknown reasons. Soon after, Del Rey released a self-titled collection of songs, Lana Del Ray, for electronic download. In June 2011, Del Rey was signed with Stranger Records and issued the 'Video Games' single, and in October 2011 she signed with Interscope Records.
