The record finds Laufey at her most daring and playful, as she captures the experience of \u201creal love\u201d in its many forms and what it means to observe as it strips you down to your most vulnerable and anxious.<\/p>\n<p>Performing an entirely sold-out Australian tour in 2024 \u2013 including a night at the iconic Sydney Opera House \u2013 Laufey\u2019s ability to curate warm nostalgia has seen her charm audiences the world over. On her third Australian visit, Laufey returns with accolades aplenty; she has accrued over 4.25 billion global streams, with a social media audience of 23 million. She has the biggest jazz LP debut in Spotify history and an album in Billboard\u2019s Top 20 (both for Bewitched), plus a growing pile of Platinum plaques, a Forbes 30 Under 30 designation, and to top it all off, was named one of TIME\u2019s 2025 Women of the Year.<\/p>\n<p>At her Coachella debut last year, Laufey joined the LA Philharmonic for a surprise set that delighted young audiences. She has sold out the Hollywood Bowl, New York\u2019s Radio City Music Hall, London\u2019s Royal Albert Hall and more, shared the stage with the likes of Jon Batiste and Raye, and collaborated on record with artists ranging from Beabadoobee to Norah Jones.<\/p>\n<p>Currently taking her across A Matter Of Time live show across Europe and the UK, and with a much-anticipated Coachella appearance upcoming next month, Laufey continues her incredible trajectory.
