Featuring the music of Laufey
Duration: 19:21
June 14, 2026

The singer Laufey has over 24 million monthly listeners on Spotify, with her top hit, a bossa nova, accumulating 1.3 billion listens. Her voice can be described as yearning, warm, angelic and vibrato-heavy. Laufey has won two Grammys in the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, for Bewitched and A Matter of Time. Comparisons have been made to chanteuse Julie London (who was popular in the '50s through the '70s for hits like "Cry Me a River") and Edith Piaf. ...And yet, there is debate as to whether Laufey is a real jazz singer. Why the critique? Is it because she is Gen Z (born 1999), a cohort that has been tagged as devoted to hip hop, electronica, pop and (in the U.S.) country music? Does Laufey’s parents’ lineage from Iceland and China rob her of street cred? Do her lush arrangements and storytelling videos peg her in the young pop/soul category?
