NY's Lana Del Ray (the stage name for Ms. Lizzy Grant) is poised to become the It girl for 2012, and it's not undeserved. She's got a sultry voice, a unique, atmospheric sound that music-oughtta-be-art lovers are going to eat up, and undeniable sex appeal. Described as a "gangsta Nancy Sinatra," the pouty torch singer already has a few in indie circles who are lining up to question her creds. I really don't think the wider world of music appreciators is going to care.
