Everything I Know About Love

Raised between Reykjavík and Washington, DC, Icelandic-Chinese singer-songwriter Laufey makes music that is the byproduct of rich cultural heritages and mixed musical influences. Inspired in part by her mother, a classical violinist, Laufey took up piano and cello early on. But it wasn't until deep-diving into her father's record collection, consisting of jazz artists Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday, that she launched into her musical journey. Through free-form scatting and reposeful vocal styling, Laufey transforms her heartfelt truths into a revived classic-sound for contemporary audiences to resonate with. After a standout year since releasing her highly-acclaimed debut EP, Typical of Me, Laufey made her television debut with a captivating performance on Late Night with Jimmy Kimmel, and performed a soft medley of tracks from her debut for KEXP's first live session back in-studio. Upcoming notable performances will continue into 2022, with Laufey confirmed to appear at the Montreal Jazz Festival, Newport Jazz Festival and Portland Jazz Festival. With the momentum from last year, Laufey is set to have another remarkable run as she prepares to share more of her signature cross-generational sound.
