Lana Del Rey has released a new single titled White Feather Hawk Tail Deer Hunter from her upcoming album Stove. The track, co-written with her family members, features minimalist production by Jack Antonoff. It arrives ahead of the album's expected release in about three months.
Lana Del Rey shared her new single White Feather Hawk Tail Deer Hunter on February 17, 2026, marking the third track previewed from her tenth studio album, Stove. The song was written by Del Rey alongside her husband Jeremy Dufrene, sister Chuck Grant, and brother-in-law Jason Pickens. It was produced by frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff, with additional contributions from Drew Erickson on string arrangements.
Described as a ghostly, minimalist ballad blending Gothic country elements with orchestral pop, the track features Del Rey's theatrical sprechgesang. Lyrics include: “He’s my white feather hawk tail deer hunter / Before I met him, wore a bow over three summers,” and a lighthearted chorus with “Whoopsie daisy, yoo hoo,” followed by “I imagine you do / Know how absolutely bad I’m with an oven.” The self-shot music video is set for release on February 18, 2026.
Stove follows Del Rey's 2023 album Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd. Initially announced as Lasso in January 2024 with a planned September 2024 release, the project shifted to The Right Person Will Stay for May 21, 2025, before being retitled Stove and delayed to early 2026. Del Rey added six more autobiographical songs, noting that the majority will have a country flair. Previous singles from the album include Henry, Come On and Bluebird, released in 2025.
Del Rey called White Feather Hawk Tail Deer Hunter her favorite song off Stove, stating she was “really happy” about it and that she and Antonoff “finally found that magical chord.” Regarding the release timeline, she said on Instagram Stories: “Honestly, soon. ‘Cause vinyl takes three months, so three months plus two weeks. It could be, give or take, a bit less than that.” One song on the album, Stars Fell on Alabama, was written about her husband, a Louisiana alligator swamp tour guide.
