Lana del Rey
is the artistic name of "Elizabeth Woolridge Grant", who was born on
June 21, 1986 in The Big Apple, but she lived many years in a small village in
Essex, NY: Lake Placid. Here, Lana del Rey began her career, she tried to
display her talent singing in the local bars, but it was not enough, so Lana
decided to come back to New York City.
At 19 years
old, Lana signed with an independent record company. Although, unhappily, the
record company went bankrupt.
In an
interview, Lana del Rey said that she walked at night the streets of NY and
described how the buildings, all the architecture and the landscape inspired
her to produce one of their albums.
Lana had to
travel to London looking for a recording house interested in her job, but did
not get it. After that, but with the support of their father, Robert Grant, who
was her producer, her album "Kill" had a public launch.
On July,
2011, Lana uploaded her song at YouTube: "Video Games" and the
successful began. People responded incredibly well and she got her contract
with Interscope on October 2011.
Since that
moment, she worked about another album, that later be called “Born to Die”.
Thanks to the fame achieved above, a lot of people recognized Lana del Rey for
her songs like “Never Let Me Go” or “Blue Jeans”, and for her role in the
program Saturday Night Live.
Today, Lana
del Rey shows around the world and she will offer a concert in Mexico City on
November 4, 2013.
She inspires
me a lot, because versus all odds she always followed her dreams, defying all
obstacles presented to her. It’s inspiring to see someone fight and get their
dreams. (AceShowbiz.com) (Elsiglodetorreon)
