Lana Del Rey

In this captivating live performance of 'Shades of Cool' from August 23, 2017, at The SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Lana Del Rey showcases her signature blend of moody aesthetics and haunting vocals. This performance comes shortly after her fifth studio album, 'Lust for Life,' which was released just a month earlier, in July 2017. The album marked a notable evolution in her sound, incorporating more upbeat elements and collaborations with artists like The Weeknd. Interestingly, during this period, Lana was also embracing a more politically charged message in her music, reflecting cultural shifts and personal growth. With 'Shades of Cool' being a standout track known for its melancholic elegance, this live recording beautifully encapsulates the transformation of her artistry, juxtaposing her vintage-inspired themes with contemporary relevance.
