Nikki Lane is set to release her new album, Denim & Diamonds, on Sept. 23 via New West Records. She has shared two tracks from the new project,“Black Widow” and “First High,” available everywhere now.
Denim & Diamonds came from a moment of careful consideration in Lane’s career when the pandemic forced everyone inside and she realized it was time to find inspiration somewhere new. Lane enlisted Queens of the Stone Age frontman Joshua Homme to help her bring the album to life, incorporating Lane’s wide-ranging influences, from The 13th Floor Elevators to traditional country stalwarts like Loretta Lynn.
The project takes stock of Lane’s first decade as a songwriter as she traces her origin story from her religious youth in South Carolina to Nashville Rebel.
Lane has released three albums–her 2011 debut Walk of Shame, 2014’s All or Nothin,’ and Highway Queen from 2017. Along with releasing new music and touring, she was featured on “Breaking Up Slowly” from Lana Del Rey’s 2021 album Chemtrails Over the Country Club and contributed to Spiritualized’s Everything Was Beautiful.
Lane will embark on a fall and winter tour beginning Aug. 3 in Boulder, Colorado and running through Dec. 18. For a full list of upcoming dates and ticket information, click here.
