Lana describes her sound as “Hollywood Sadcore”, inspired by David Lynch, 50s black and white movies, Coney Island, Hip-Hop and heartbreak.
“There’s something beautiful about the fight. About any fight” told Lana. “I’m talking about epic, knocked-down, dragged-out love stories in song. That’s what I’m heading towards.”
At 18, Lana ditched her home town of Lake Placid to move to New York City. “Since I was little I knew I would end up there,” she said. “Every day is a pleasure there. Every single day I walk out of the door is a good day. I like everything about it. New York totally rewards me for my love of it.”
Video Games/Blue Jeans is released on October 16th.
