After many teasers, Lana Del Rey has finally released “Henry, Come On,” the first offering from her upcoming 10th studio album, “The Right Person Will Stay.”
Del Rey first announced the single in January 2024 with an audio excerpt posted on Instagram. She then posted artwork in March that featured herself wearing a lacy white dress with the title, “Henry, Come On,” in the upper left-hand corner. In the latter post, Del Rey tagged previous collaborators Luke Laird, Drew Erickson and Dean Reid, as well as photographer Neil Krug, makeup artist Tyron Machhausen and hair stylist Anna Cofone.
Del Rey’s next album, “The Right Person Will Stay,” arrives May 21. She announced the album last November, writing on Instagram: “So grateful that my 13 tracks came together with my beautiful work between Luke, Jack, Zach and Drew Erickson amongst others. Happy for you to hear a few songs coming up before Stagecoach starting with Henry. Love Always.”
The singer has a Stagecoach set in April before her summer dates throughout the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Del Rey was previously expected to release a country album called “Lasso,” but that concept appears to have shifted over time. She told Vogue Italia that “Originally, me and the label were excited because the energy of the music of the album was meant to reflect my new life. Now, I’m not so sure, but I’m usually pretty good with my own timing. I might turn it into something more ‘Southern gothic,’ like it was meant to be from the start, and less country.”
