Lana Del Rey Announces New Album ‘The Right Person Will Stay’: Here’s When It Arrives
Written by djfrosty on November 25, 2024
Lana Del Rey has announced a new album titled The Right Person Will Stay, set for release in May 2025.
“So grateful that my 13 tracks came together with my beautiful work between Luke, Jack, and Drew Erickson amongst others,” the singer-songwriter wrote on Instagram alongside the May 21 release date. “Happy for you to hear a few songs coming up before Stagecoach. Starting with Henry. Love always.”
Del Rey’s Instagram post tagged producers/musicians including Jack Antonoff and Zachary Dawes (both of whom worked on her 2023 album Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd) and Luke Laird (known for his work with Kacey Musgraves, Eric Church and more).
The singer/songwriter teased a country album titled Lasso in January at the Billboard x NMPA Songwriter Awards ahead of this year’s Grammys, initially noting that the album would release in September. “We’re going country!” she said at the time. “It’s happening.” She also previewed a dreamy, guitar-forward song, presumably titled “Henry, Come On,” that same month, which could be the “Henry” she references in her new IG caption.

In August, Del Rey told Vogue, “All my albums are somewhat rooted in Americana, unless it’s an album like Honeymoon which has a jazz flair, so I don’t think it will be a heavy departure.”
The upcoming album will follow last year’s Did You Know That There’s A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, which peaked at No. 3 on the all-genre Billboard 200. To date, she has two top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, including 2013’s “Summertime Sadness,” and her 2022 feature on Taylor Swift’s “Snow on the Beach.”
In addition to new music, Del Rey is set to embark on a stadium tour of U.K. and Ireland shows, starting in June 2025. The tour will launch June 23 at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium in Wales and will make stops in Glasgow, Liverpool, Dublin and more, before concluding July 3 at London’s Wembley Stadium. Del Rey is set to play Stagecoach in April in Indio, California.
