Laufey has confirmed new concert album ‘A Night At The Symphony’.
The rising force linked with Iceland Symphony Orchestra for two special nights in Rekyjavik last year, taking over the historic Harpa Concert Hall. The concerts offered a lush, widescreen adaptation of her work, as well as allowing Laufey to reinterpret some long-time favourites.
The project boasted material from her excellent debut album ‘Everything I Know About Love’, plus her 2021 EP ‘Typical Of Me’, as well as material from Hoagy Carmichael and Ned Washington, Cole Porter, and Icelandic jazz artist Elly Vilhjálm.
Out on March 2nd, it’s trailed – somewhat aptly – by a dulcet rendition of ‘Valentine’.
