Breakout jazz artist and multi-instrumentalist Laufey has unveiled a new track “From The Start” via AWAL Recordings. “‘From The Start’ is a bossa nova inspired song about being in love with your best friend…who is in love with someone else. I wrote the song to create a playful mix of old sounds with modern lyrics,” Laufey explains. Fans can listen to “From The Start” here: laufey.ffm.to/fromthestart
“From The Start” is the first taste of much more new original music to come from Laufey later this year. The song follows the release of A Night At The Symphony—a curated collection of songs Laufey recorded with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra during a sold-out two-night run at Harpa Concert Hall in Reykjavík last year. A Night At The Symphony features previously released tracks off her debut album ‘Everything I Know About Love’ and her 2021 EP, ‘Typical of Me’.
Moreover, Laufey’s recently announced headlining performance with the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra this fall, as well as her entire summer tour in Australia and Asia, sold out in just minutes. She will also appear at various festivals this summer including Java Jazz Festival in Jakarta, Ottawa Jazz Festival and THING Festival. See below for the details of her Southeast Asia tour.
