'Bewitched: The Goddess Edition' is also available on vinyl, cassette, and CD. The expanded package includes dark blue vinyl, an updated booklet, and a custom board game.
On the heels of her upcoming sold-out back-to-back shows in Manila (with Manila Philharmonic Orchestra, 28-29 May) and her headline slot at this year's Java Jazz Festival in Jakarta (25 May), Laufey just announced that she is bringing her sold-out "Bewitched: The Goddess Tour" to the rest of Southeast Asia in August with pre-sales starting on 6 May.
2023 was a
standout year for Laufey. 'Bewitched' was the biggest
debut for a jazz album on Spotify in history. It debuted at #2 on
Spotify’s Global and U.S. Album Charts, as well as #23 on the
Billboard 200, #1 on Billboard’s Independent Albums Chart,
and #1 on Current Traditional Jazz Albums Chart. The album’s hit
single “From The Start” is
now RIAA-certified Platinum. In February, Laufey won the 2024
GRAMMY® for “Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album”, the youngest person
to ever win in that category. Los Angeles-based Laufey (pronounced lāy-vāy) was raised between Reykjavík and Washington, D.C. with annual visits to Beijing. In 2020, while still a student at Berklee College of Music, Laufey released her debut single “Street by Street”, which went on to top the Icelandic radio charts. In 2022, she released her debut full-length, 'Everything I Know About Love', which reached #1 on Billboard’s Alternative New Artist Album chart. The album featured the RIAA-certified Gold singles “Valentine”, which peaked at #1 on the Spotify Jazz Chart, and “Let You Break My Heart Again”. Today, she has over 2 billion streams across all platforms and is the biggest streaming artist from Iceland in the world. |
