Her new album is the follow-up to her 2021 records Chemtrails Over The Country Club and Blue Banisters. It will feature collaborations with producers Jack Antonoff, Drew Erickson and Zach Dawes, engineer Laura Sisk, as well as guest vocalists Jon Batiste, Father John Misty, and Tommy Genesis. 

Did You Know That There’s A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd contains 16 tracks, some with wordy song titles, including Grandfather Please Stand on The Shoulders of My Father While He’s Deep-Sea Fishing.

Del Rey announced the release of her ninth album last month and shared a preview with fans by unveiling the title track.

Known for cinematic musical scope, dream-pop vocals, and critiques of contemporary pop culture from the 1950s and 1960s, Del Rey has developed a cult base of listeners and critical acclaim for her eight albums.

A few weeks ago, Del Rey's team were behind placing the sole billboard promoting the new album in her ex-boyfriend's city of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In a photo she posted to her private Instagram account that's now circulating on Twitter via screenshots, Del Rey took a picture of herself in the car in view of the billboard with the caption: "There's only one, and it's in Tulsa," accompanied by a skull emoji. In the comments, she wrote, "It's. Personal."

Her fans quickly responded to the tweet shared, noting that Del Rey announced the release date of her ninth album on her ex-boyfriend Sean Larkin's birthday (7 December).
