Lana's Legacy and the Journey to 'Stove'

With her evocative storytelling and cinematic, gloomy sound, Lana Del Rey has established a unique place for herself in contemporary music.

Popular successes including 'Summertime Sadness,' 'Video Games,' 'Young and Beautiful,' 'West Coast,' and 'Doin' Time' are the result of her fusion of dream pop, Americana, and baroque pop influences. 

Throughout her more than ten years of recording, Del Rey has established herself as one of the most renowned singer-songwriters of her time thanks to her expressive voice and rich thematic depth. Building on her long artistic tradition, 'Stove,' her upcoming tenth album, has been teased for its subtle country influences and reflective tone.

The New Single—'White Feather-Hawk Tail Deer Hunter'

After months of speculation, Lana Del Rey has revealed that her upcoming single, 'White Feather-Hawk Tail Deer Hunter,' will be released on 17th February, 2026. Lana shared the news on Instagram, saying the song is one of her "favourite" songs she's ever written and that it’s very personal. The song is notable for its close-knit creative team as well as its poetic, nature-inspired title. In a rare and significant partnership, Lana acknowledged her husband Jeremy Dufrene as a co-writer alongside longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff.

Additional songwriting credits include her sister Caroline "Chuck" Grant and brother-in-law Jason Pickens, reinforcing the close-knit, family-driven nature of the project.

It is anticipated that the song would maintain Lana's trademark cinematic melancholy while leaning into soft country textures and Americana overtones. She also confirmed that a music video has already been completed, describing it as simple, stripped-down, and emotionally raw. The song, which comes after the earlier releases of 'Henry, Come On' and 'Bluebird,' is confirmed to be included on her next album, 'Stove,' and will give fans a better idea of the sound and narrative direction of her new era. 

Album Delay, Country Vibes, and Creative Collaboration

Del Rey's tenth studio album 'Stove' has been one of her most frequently discussed projects in recent years, initially announced under other titles like "Lasso" and "The Right Person Will Stay." Its release timeline shifted multiple times, partly due to the artist's decision to add more songs and refine the record's sound—described by her as having a country flair yet still rooted in her signature style. The delay has also been caused by vinyl production timetables; Lana has informed fans that the album would be released "soon" because physical production naturally extends the timeframe.

In view of her collaboration, she has publicly discussed about how her relationship with Jeremy Dufrene, whom she married in 2024, has impacted both her artistic and personal lives. This new single's collaboration highlights the importance of both professional and personal influence. As Del Rey continues to shape her new artistic chapter, fans may anticipate the whole album's release later in 2026. Fans, however, may now anticipate the release of her new single.
