DEL REY JOINS FORCES WITH COURTNEY LOVE

Bittersweet songbird Lana Del Rey has carved a niche for herself as one of the hottest female performers out there at the moment, following the success of her first single Video Games when it was released in 2012. Called a 'gangsta Nancy Sinatra', Del Rey's stage persona fuses the elegance of a 1950s screen siren with streetwise charm and haunting, breathy trilling.

Her edgy music videos, sultry voice, long auburn hair and signature pout turned her into sex-symbol long before her debut album was even released.There is no denying however, the allure of singles like 'Sometime Sadness,' 'Ride,' and 'Young and Beautiful'. Del Rey has been nominated for and received several key music industry awards and has participated in contributing songs to various movie soundtracks including 2014's Maleficent, and Tim Burton's upcoming project Big Eyes.

In support of her sophomore album, "Ultraviolence", Del Rey is set to tour with rock hellraiser Courtney Love for the first eight dates before Del Rey moves eastwards on the next leg.
