Denim & Diamonds was born out of a moment of careful consideration in Lane's career-when
several years of touring behind her last album came to an end and the early days of the
pandemic forced everyone inside, Lane knew it was time to find inspiration somewhere new.
Lane enlisted Queens of the Stone Age frontman Joshua Homme to help her bring Denim &
Diamonds to life, with whom she assembled a studio band of big-budget talent. With Homme's
help, Lane transformed 11K+ the seeds of ideas she had for years into an album that nods to her
wide-ranging influences. Denim & Diamonds was a chance for Lane to take stock of her first
decade as a songwriter as she traces her origin story from her religious youth in South Carolina
to Nashville Rebel.

Raised as a Baptist in Greenville, South Carolina, Lane discovered music as an outlet for creative
expression at an early age, dropping out of school at 17 to move to Los Angeles, then New York,
and then Nashville to launch her songwriting career. She has previously released three albums-
her 2011 debut Walk of Shame, 2014's All or Nothin' and Highway Queen from 2017. Aside from
steadily releasing new music of her own and touring the world, she was featured on "Breaking
Up Slowly" on Lana Del Rey's 2021 album Chemtrails Over the Country Club and contributed to
Spiritualized's Everything Was Beautiful.
