Mallrat Shares Cover of Lana Del Rey’s ‘Radio’

The track arrives as Mallrat prepares to support MARINA on her upcoming North American tour.

Gearing up for her support slot on MARINA’s Princess of Power North American tour, Brizzy favourite Mallrat has shared a cover of Lana Del Rey’s ‘Radio’.

The track, which originally appeared on Rey’s hit 2012 album Born To Die, has been transformed into a dreamy, lo-fi vibe that gels with Mallrat’s, aka Grace Shaw, electronic indie meets pop output.

“Lana Del Rey is one of my all time favourite artists, and this song is one of my favourite songs of hers,” Shaw says of the track. “I love how the melodies and the delivery of the original feel like a national anthem. The lyrics are triumphant and remind me of how incredible it feels to defy people’s expectations.

“I remember listening to this song when I was a teenager, I often felt really isolated and this song was something that felt like a hopeful connection to my future self. I would listen to it and visualise my life being different.”

2025 has been a great year for Mallrat, who released her sophomore album, Light Hit My Face Like a Straight Right, back in February.

DIY called it “A collection of dance-inflected singer-songwriter fare with an elusive tension at its core,” while DORK wrote “[Mallrat] crafted an album that pushes boundaries while maintaining its emotional core.”

Mallrat also supported Kylie Minogue on her monster Tension Australian tour and will hopefully announce her own headline tour soon.

‘Radio’ by Mallrat is out now.
