Lana Del Rey made a notable appearance at the 2025 Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California, marking a significant step in her musical evolution. Known for her melancholic pop and cinematic soundscapes, Del Rey embraced a more rustic, country-inspired aesthetic during her performance on April 25. This shift aligns with her upcoming tenth studio album, The Right Person Will Stay, set to release on May 21, 2025.
New Music and Surprises
During her set, Del Rey debuted several new tracks, including “Henry, Come On,” “Husband of Mine,” and “57.5.” The latter song drew attention for its candid lyrics, revealing that she once kissed country star Morgan Wallen. The line, “I kissed Morgan Wallen / I guess kissing me kind of went to his head,” was delivered with a touch of humor, adding a personal flair to her performance.
In addition to her original material, Del Rey paid homage to country classics with covers of Tammy Wynette’s “Stand by Your Man” and John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads.” She was joined on stage by country artist George Birge for a rendition of his song “Cowboy Songs,” further solidifying her embrace of the genre.
A New Look for a New Era
Complementing her musical transformation, Del Rey unveiled a striking new hairstyle at the festival. She debuted a rich “Brown Sugar Brunette” color, created by celebrity colorist Tracey Cunningham, symbolizing her grounded and soulful transition into country music. The look was completed with retro curls and vintage-style faux-bob, enhancing her Americana-inspired aesthetic.
