Lana Del Rey

In July 2016, Lana Del Rey performed 'Ride' at the Montreux Jazz Festival, a defining moment just after the release of her album 'Honeymoon' from September 2015. This album showcases her signature cinematic sound, deeply infused with melancholy and introspective lyrics. By the time of this live recording, Lana had solidified her place as a unique voice in contemporary music, often blending themes of nostalgia and Americana. Interestingly, 'Ride' itself is more than just a song; it's a cultural statement, reflecting on liberation and self-discovery, and its performance at such a prestigious festival added a layer of grandeur to its impact. The Montreux Jazz Festival is renowned for celebrating musical excellence, making it an ideal backdrop for Lana's evocative artistry.
