Becoming Lana Del Reyīy the time her first album came out, Del Rey had decided she wanted to work under a new name. With the $10,000 she earned for this deal, Del Rey moved into a New Jersey trailer park. In 2006, she entered a songwriting competition she didn't win, but a judge on the panel helped her create a demo, which led to her signing with the indie label 5 Points.
Early Careerĭel Rey, then still known as Lizzy Grant, started her career with open mic nights and club gigs. Though Del Rey soon enrolled at Fordham University in the Bronx, where she studied philosophy, music became her true focus. Instead of attending college right away, she went to live with her aunt and uncle on Long Island her uncle taught her to play guitar. Boarding school wasn't a complete cure, but by the age of 18, Del Rey was sober.
