Lana Del Rey

In April 2014, Lana Del Rey was riding high from the release of her album 'Ultraviolence,' which had dropped just a few months earlier. This album not only marked a significant evolution in her sound but also showcased a darker, more mature lyrical landscape that resonated deeply with her fans. Recorded at the Comerica Theatre in Phoenix, her performance of 'West Coast' exemplifies the sultry vibe of the album, blending atmospheric melodies with a laid-back groove that perfectly captures the California spirit. Interestingly, 'West Coast' became a fan favorite, not just for its hypnotic beat but also for its unique shift in musical style, reflecting her growing confidence as an artist. This live recording serves as a perfect snapshot of that moment in her career, embodying the transition she was making both sonically and personally.
