Lana Del Rey teases 'companion album' to long-awaited Stove

Lana Del Rey is working on a "companion album" to her long-awaited project, Stove.

Returning to Instagram on Wednesday, the Video Games hitmaker shared a series of recent photos and videos, including the vinyl cover art for Stove and another record seemingly titled Spyda.

In the accompanying caption, Lana - real name Elizabeth Grant - announced that she is set to release two albums this year.

"Stove is so lovely and intact as it was intended to be - a classic album if I may say, a lot of which we've toured and you've heard - but not all of it," she began. "Thank you to everybody involved. And as the years went by, came a beautiful, secondary album... A commentary of sorts on everything that has been going on, and the patience that was required - and the trust I had to have that not all the things that weren't working was just because of me."

Lana went on to note that she needs "a month to finish putting it together".

"I'm grateful for all my collaborators, I guess it took what it took to finish it," the 41-year-old continued. "It certainly is two of my most beautiful pieces of work, rooted in what I thought would be made out of growth and joy but was peppered with a secondary compilation of songs that sprouted from doubt, hopefulness, and the understanding that new beginnings truly mean starting completely fresh and over. When life decides to send you down another river, it's really not your choice, and it's truly an adventure of its own."

Elsewhere in the message, Lana thanked her fans for waiting so long for her tenth studio album, Stove.

Originally, the Summertime Sadness singer announced plans to release Stove, a country music album, in 2024, and then again at the start of 2026.

"I'm so grateful to everyone who's still on board with me. And of course, I wish the best to everyone who stayed on land. Of course I understand. Just kidding. I thought we were in the boat together," she added.

Lana released her last album, Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, in 2023.
