Check out Gregory and the Hawk! She has TONS of gorgeous, soft, tranquil songs that mainly use guitar. Her voice even sounds like a young Lizzy Grant.

 

Personal faves of theirs: Oats We Sow, For the Best, Some White Mountain, Boats & Birds.

omg thank you so much

much more mainstream/pop than any of Lana's catalog. 

 

Phoebe's Punisher comes a bit closer to Lana's style of folk. 

[Pontiac Blues]

Joni Mitchell, especially the albums Ladies of the Canyon and Blue.

Hazeldine, try My Magdalene and Digging You Up

Plastic Jesus by Tia Blake

Some of Nancy Sinatra's work could fit the bill, could be worth exploring her discography  I love Lana's Summer Wine cover but the original will always be superior imo

Many of these are my favorite songs by her! 

It's difficult to compare though - maybe you might enjoy "the American Recordings" by Johnny Cash? 

A few songs by Nick Cave got a similar vibe, too, but I'm not good remembering single songs by him. I quite like his albums "push the sky away" and "teenage ghost", but the instrumentation is not too folky there. 

Also Kylie Minogue's compilation album "Hits+" comes into my mind. 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hits_%2B it includes songs from her album "impossible princess" and "Kylie Minogue", but also several outtakes which remind me a lot of these Lana songs you've mentioned. Also a duet with Nick Cave. 

 

Maybe also Ryan Bingham's current EP "watch out for the wolf".

Why did i think that said caitlyn jenner ?

[Nightcall]

This is a predictable answer but I feel like you’d like a Kacey Musgraves song or two.

[Strangelove]

To start I would nominate the recent Addison Rae release Diet Pepsi.

[DeadSeaOfMercury]

You Were Meant For Me - Jewel

[Embach]

Like two months ago, I was in a car and the radio started playing Madison Beer's Make You Mine and the beginning had me shocked in a way that the beginning's "I-I-I-I" sounded exactly, EXACTLY like Lana's voice and I was like there's no fucking way there's a song I might have missed  but the rest of the song didn't sound like Lana anymore, I still like half-thought that maybe it's a remix or a mashup of different songs/samples including Lana's "I" parts, until I heard it again the other day and the radio showed the singer and the song's name - Madison Beer - Make You Mind. I don't keep up with Madison and her songs, so I didn't know it was her at all.

this girl literally used a Lana Del Rey type beat from youtube that she bought and it's just an instrumental rip off of "Is This Happiness," you can literally sing the song over it and it matches perfectly, which is why the instrumental was also used for a rock version of Is This Happiness:

The rock version of Is This Happiness is bullshit imo. It's a fanmade version from this instrumental concept which was inspired from Ultraviolence title track and James Bond soundtracks.

 

I lowkey feel like an og because I've been listening to this like ever since it was released like 2020/21 and before it became viral

no I know that it’s fan made, that’s why I said it used an instrumental from an LDR type beat 

 

but I actually prefer it over the real version imo
