Lana Del Rey turned the Stagecoach Country Music Festival into her own enchanted bayou on Friday, April 25, at the Palomino, delivering a breathtaking set that blended classic Americana and country, and her own flare of dreamy indie pop that she’s known to make all her own, combined with bold, personal storytelling.

Del Rey continued with her now-iconic cover of “Stand By Your Man,” which she played on several stops of her last tour, as her onstage background dancers waltzed to the Tammy Wynette classic. Things got real country as Del Rey welcomed George Birge to perform his country chart-topping track “Cowboy Songs” with her.

It was an exciting first day in the desert for the Stagecoach Music Festival, which annually brings many of the best and biggest country acts in the world to Indio, Calif. for three days of performances.
