Lana Del Rey – Violet Bent Backwards over the Grass

Violet Bent Backwards over the Grass was also released as Lana Del Rey‘s first spoken word album. It was released on July 28, 2020, two months before the release of the book. Del Rey selected 14 of the 30 poems that appear in the book to record. Aside from Del Rey’s own voice, the album features instrumental production from frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff, with whom Del Rey first worked on Norman Fucking Rockwell! and later on both Chemtrails over the Country Club and Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd.
