REGISTER FOR LAUFEY PRESALE TICKETS

This won’t be the first time that Los Angeles-based Laufey will offer up her spellbinding modern jazz while backed by the euphonious talents of the LA Philharmonic. Just last year, they shared a memorable night with audiences at the intimate outdoor space venue The Ford.

Those who couldn’t make it to that show are getting a second chance with the return of Laufey featuring the LA Phil at the Hollywood Bowl. A spacious upgrade from last summer’s performance, one befitting the emotional scope and resonant breadth of the music they create together. One that will draw on the enchanting compositions to be found within her two studio albums: her debut Everything I Know About Love and its 2023 follow-up Bewitched.

Laufey sold-out the Theatre at Ace Hotel with a fall tour in support of that sophomore record. She is continuing those run of dates into 2024 with the Bewitched: The Goddess Tour which starts this April and will reach San Francisco, Austin, New York, and more.

At 24 years old the veritable multi-hyphenate has emerged as one of the leading voices of a new generation of jazz artists. Drawing on the timelessness of predecessors like Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald while still finding the space to imbue it with contemporary color and deeply intimate introspections. Even just a summary stroll through her catalog will have you clamoring for the chance to hear those luminous pieces live.

If you need further proof of the wonder that’s in store for those who attend look no further than one of the live albums the Icelandic-born Laufey released last spring. Mere months before she would make her debut with the LA Phil, she unveiled A Night at the Symphony, a recording of her performance with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra. Before that, she’d been joined by the London Philharmonic Orchestra for the release of her single “Let You Break My Heart Again” and “California and Me” off her second album. So to say that she’s the kind of artist with experience and sound perfectly tailored for a night of orchestral accompaniment is a great understatement.
