Lana Del Rey took the stage Saturday at Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon” charity concert, with the singer opened her set with a rendition of the host’s “The Needle and the Damage Done.”
“I thought we’d get started with a little bit of Neil,” Del Rey told the crowd as she walked onstage at Lake Hughes, California’s Painted Turtle Summer Camp. She and her band then launched into a faithful and stirring take on the Harvest classic.
Del Rey’s set also included performances of her own “Arcadia,” “Video Games,” “Summertime Sadness,” and “Norman Fucking Rockwell,” as well as her first-ever solo performance of “Let the Light In.”
Saturday’s gig marked Del Rey’s last scheduled performance of 2025 — and the last show on her live itinerary in general — but there’s always the slim chance she might randomly hop up onstage if the moment strikes her. The singer previously revealed that her country-inspired album has been pushed to 2026.
This year’s Harvest Moon concert also featured sets from Beck, John Mayer, and Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts. Proceeds from the concert will benefit the Painted Turtle, which provides a summer camp experience for kids with serious medical issues, and the Bridge School, which educates children with severe speech and physical disabilities.
