Laufey (pronounced l?y-v?y) is a 24-year-old, Los Angeles-based singer, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist whose jazz songs are about young love and self-discovery. Raised between Reykjavik and Washington, D.C. with annual visits to Beijing, the Icelandic-Chinese artist grew up playing cello as well as piano and became hooked on the jazz standards of Ella Fitzgerald after digging through her father's record collection. In 2020, while still a student at Berklee College of Music, Laufey released her debut single "Street by Street," which went on to top the Icelandic radio charts. Following the release of her 2021 Typical of Me EP, Laufey was named Best New Artist in Jazz and Blues at the Icelandic Music Awards and hosted her own show on BBC Radio 3/BBC Sounds. Her debut full-length Everything I Know About Love, debuted at #1 on Billboard's Alternative New Artist Album chart, and the lead single "Valentine" peaked at #1 on the Spotify Jazz Chart. In 2022 Laufey was the most streamed jazz artist on Spotify, with 425 million streams across all platforms.
Laufey was enchanting and bewitching!!! She played many instruments and the Montreal crowd sang along to everything. Love the theatre experience, small space yet intimate — perfect for the Laufey experience! Even without an orchestra, she demonstrated excellent musical talent. I brought my friends and my boyfriend (who’s never been to a concert) and they loved it 😭 ANYWAY you keep going Laufey!! Lots of love! bisous
