A Very Laufey Day Live From LA

[@ameiaa620]

I love that everyone's silent so we can hear laufey's fantastic voice. its so lovely instead of screaming fans

[@Idontknowwhatimdoing.771]

I love these kind of fans! They just appreciate the artist and their music and just enjoys the heavenly voice that echoes when they sing.

[@leehaengbok]

I know right! They shout at the right timings and let her speak/sing too ~♡

[@ameiaa620]

@@leehaengbokReal both of you

[@Idontknowwhatimdoing.771]

@@leehaengbok yeah, honestly these are the best kind of fandoms!~ ❤️

[@PeterPan-xe7qw]

I mean I think there are definitely different types of venues for both. This is great because she's really well mic'd, in big shows, it's hard to get a good mic on the artist unless it's their company's video which obviously has access to the artist's live mic recordings. Also, both are probably edited a bit, but compared to a live show at a stadium it will be easier to hear since it's much more chill. Live shows at a stadium or at festivals are where you go crazy. Both are probably amazing for artists though, one where you have people so invested in your music they're silenced and the other you have people so invested in your music they're screaming your lyrics tell their voices give out. I'd imagine you'd feel amazing for either.

[@levim24]

I swear, she's the most wholesome and adorable musician out there. She deserves all the love, support, and success she's gotten and will get.

[@GunnarFreyr71909]

The concerts are sold out so she just rigs up alive concert outside her calender for free. Unheard of. An amazing person. I am right, aint I, this is outside the concert calendar?

Yes this was outside of her tour dates. It was a surprise 😭

To see a crowd of young people singing and swaying to your bossa nova From The Start does my old heart good. You're an incredible talent.

[@lilprince1234]

From The Start is her greatest song!

[@Kevin6059]

I felt the same way watching this.

I wonder how many grandmas and grandpas have felt astonished listening to that music from their grandchildren...

The fact that “Letter to My 13 Year Old Self” is played at 13:36 is a Serendipity… if you know what I mean with this word🧡😅

[@prestonrcasey]

Her vocals are so beautiful, and she has great control during Lovesick

Thank you SO MUCH!!!!

Thanks fellas

[@RunYourHandsInMyHair]

lovesick is def the best for me

[@Ozzymandius1]

I don’t think you realize how good your music is all around. Lyrically, vocally, and rhythmically, it all just flows.

[@tunamushroommelt]

❤❤❤

[@TacticalStrike]

As a classical musician I really appreciate the music itself. The progressions and harmonies are so satisfying 😍

[@funtimesindeed]

I think she realizes lol

[@susannemuller6810]

You are so right ! Listen at her beautiful song Magnolia ! She doesn‘t even know that she is this girl! So beautiful and with the greatest perfection ! ❤️

[@FlaschDJ]

I’m 70 years old, very cynical in general and familiar with the jazz greats and the singer songwriters. I must admit: She’s very good. Her lyrics and chords and very sophisticated. She’s a great singer AND an excellent guitarist. I concede. She’s outstanding.

[@giuliab8484]

There’s good modern music, you just have to look to find it!

[@peterfrank1572]

You too ! 😯 I thought I was not for old people !

[@DonMayfield]

@@peterfrank1572 Age is just a number.

[@J4-nv8du]

Such positive energy from the crowd. They're exactly what I pictured her fans to be like. Laufey's so easy-going. Sometimes a little awkward, a little shy. Always charming. Then she sings and it's like, how is this real? It's just like listening to the album.

[@rothneyvandermerwe5429]

Exactly

[@nemenciomacapugay6738]

Im bewitched by her lovely voice

[@tlgx884]

Holy crap this crowd is insane

[@AnnaF33]

And they are educated and they don’t scream like freaks

[@mariaakinkuolie7610]

She’s just the artist I’ve been yearning for in this day and age 😭

[@nebula.rivers]

"Just a little lyric flop, thats okay!" 18:07 - I dunno something about that moment was so humanizing and pure. She kept saying "ahh i hope i dont mess up the lyrics" and then she did and it was okay and she said it was! Its almost fitting that it happened during letter to my 13 year old self, a song about telling your past self basically "it'll all be okay" - letting go of the need for it all to be perfect and just like, being a grown up professional and messing up and it not being a big deal and THEN 25:58 forgetting and asking the audience "whats this part anyone got it?" and just like FULLY EMBRACING IT and it all being so so totally okay! I dont know i'm not explaining this well but. that little sentence, those little moments, meant a lot.

[@ManitRaysean]

I think one of the reasons besides her talent why Laufey is such a captivating artist is that she has a very girl next door down to earth personality, she doesn't consider herself above anyone else. And people love an artist in which they can relate to, and the fact that she is tremendously talented helps too 🥰

[@maeveiwasaki687]

seeing her there, outside in a beautiful park with the wind blowing under a blazing sun was breathtaking. it was literally the best day of my life. laufey fans are so sweet and wholesome. she brings together the best people💗

[@strawberrybobaa]

WHAT PARK WAS IT??!

[@maeveiwasaki687]

pan pacific park in LA! right by the grove on beverly blvd @@strawberrybobaa

[@iamsoradicallycool]

i was late by a few minutes after this ended (WAAAAAHH) but im glad u got to experience it!! i got to do the other things for a very laufey day tho so im not complaining hehe

[@mooneagle9028]

The way she talks and expresses is really adorable. She deserves all the fan

[@fredflintstone1428]

It is a joy to watch an audience hanging on Laufey's every note and word.........it's not something you see very often these days in 'pop' music.

[@MrRFasters]

She s a new category. Sort of a modern lyrical troubadour poppy jazz singer not afraid of walz and bossanova rhythms, laying her lyrics in a new way over her melodic and harmonious chord scales. There is soo much more about her music than meets the superficial eye. Wow. Wow. Wow. ❤❤❤

[@jospenner9503]

Yep, lots of fusion going on here.

[@Bixmy]

yes please dont call her song jazz it'll create misconception of what jazz are. she is not a jazz musician. calling her mid-century pop musician would be more appropriate. most of mid-century pop might sound like jazz but are not consider fully jazz by most if not all jazz musician that grow from the jazz that come from the root of blue bebob etc.

[@Bixmy]

not to say that she is not great at it, she is. but calling this jazz is something else.

[@MrRFasters]

@@Bixmy Check out the chord scales, the numerous 2-5-1 sequences, listen to it next to the greatest 1300 Jazz songbook classics of all time and pls again 🙏 explain me it shouldn t been considered being jazz, or at least jazzy. Not that it 😕 matters though ... Don t understand you don t recognize her as being one of the greatest recent Jazz singer voices but that s only me talking. Luckily the North Sea Jazz festival, and numerous other Jazz festivals did 😀 ...

[@Bixmy]

@@MrRFasters do you understand the difference between mid century pop and jazz in that same era? Alot of normal people would say they are both sound jazzy but Theres a slight different in the culture its originate from and how the music is conceived and pass on. And it also lack one of the essential criteria for jazz the improvising/band communication part (the orther 2 essential criteria are swing and the blues). not only that she actually is very disconnected to the jazz community and culture that has been cultivated until today. Most of her backup musician actually dont even have a jazz background. This is not to say that's its bad. her song are great and i love it. I often listen ot it but i have a hard time saying that its jazz this is the same as saying this is pizza but u have tortilla or other types of bread as base not pizza dough its not that its bad but it's not pizza.

[@WaitingForTheHook]

One thing about her that excites me the most is she's only 24 and already this good. She'll be singing jazz songs for the next 40 years, at least and we get to follow along the whole time.

[@jospenner9503]

It's more like jazz inspired pop.

[@fnerXVI]

Let's hope she doesn't take too much influence from great jazz musicians and gets hooked on cocaine or worse 😂

[@Chibi_Bendrix]

this isn't Jazz homey, it's pop song writing + complex harmony.

[@lavamonkeymc]

@@Chibi_Bendrixher scat solo in From The Start is very much jazz .. she’s not playing standards but still

[@Chibi_Bendrix]

@@lavamonkeymc it might be if she improvised it, but she didn't. Also there scatting in many African American music traditions. Blues, Gospel, Neo Soul, Doo Wop. Doesn't mean they're Jazz dude.

[@Dibblesoldhollywood]

Jazz and Blues are making a tremendous comeback! The fact that a gentle jazz soul like Laufey can have this many people show up on a whim in LOS ANGELES of all places is freaking amazing

[@Bixmy]

small correction.*its mid-century pop* its a program music not jazz.

[@Bixmy]

not to say that she isnt good she is but this is not really jazz.

[@Dibblesoldhollywood]

@@Bixmy okay yeah I agree with that. It’s more swing and yeah mid century 1940-60 pop with a jazz tinge and sometimes a lofi slant, but all things considered it’s jazz enough for me especially when she straight up emulates Chet Baker half the time lol but yeah I agree

[@jlee3568]

anyone know where in Los Angeles this was performed at? Anyone recognize the location?

[@RodneyBalmes]

she literally sounds the same on her studio album. PURE TALENT

[@anamrake]

Your vibrato sends me over the moon and back. Your style reminds me of those classic jazz singers in the 50s. It is such a pleasure to listen to your songs. Please keep up the good work!

[@user-kun2147]

This is the best audience I have ever seen. Instead of shouting and screaming every 5 seconds, they actually let her finish the song. Love this

[@TheBookL0ver]

I feel so spoiled as a fan! What a beautiful voice. So glad this performance was filmed for us!

[@cyc20976]

Laufey is live as bewildering and amazing as her studio recordings! She is shining on stage like a jazz diva😍

[@rizaumami996]

The first time i checked out her songs on spotify she has around 800k monthly listeners, now she has 13million listeners. I'm shock!! She's getting famous ❤❤❤

[@ExistingSmiles]

same! i started to listen to her when she had around 700k listeners

[@Max-jf5vu]

Thank you so much for this Laufey! Releasing this for free when there are people who missed out on tickets is really generous, and having a live version of songs from your album is such a treat.

she bewitched me

[@kristvoiles484]

Good heavens. I can't believe I haven't heard of this talent until now. What a beautiful voice and lovely demeanor with the crowd. She's amazing! Love the classic sound of her voice. It's like some of the best female vocals from the 20's-40's manifesting in a modern-day singer. KZbin's algorithm has struck gold again for me with this video. So happy to have stumbled upon Laufey's music. ❤

How is she so good live - like she sounded nervous right before beginning bewitched. And then perfection ✨💕

[@jaibruce777]

Laufey's voice is special, like Karen Carpenter, she's able to deliver each song same as the studio version: no frills, no effects, no autotune, just raw music, pure talent right there. Amazing! Thank you for the gift of music you've shared. We love you "from the start".❤🥰

[@jackdolphy8965]

Sorry bro sis, she’s no Karen Carpenter. Even casual listening will leave you knowing that. She’s also no Marilyn Chirinos ….

[@salimoneus]

yea, Karen Carpenter is the goat by a country mile, she was a gift to humanity and there will never be another. don't get me wrong, Laufey is an amazing talent, she has a very unique style and puts everything together fabulously. i look forward to enjoying her music for many years to come.

[@eddames9839]

Wow ... your songs and the way you sing have the vintage vibe. Your talent is transcendent! Happy to see you attracting multi-generational following. You got me as a solid fan here in Manila.

This encourages my heart, the fact that there are tons of kids listening to jazz?! Humanity is not lost.

This has to be one of the coolest things I’ve seen the year 😭 wish I could’ve been there in person but watching this is more then enough, I really hope to be able to catch a concert and hear Dreamer and Haunted in person 💕

So beautiful. Never expected to hear this high quality of music in this era

[@elenadenajera9805]

I’m obsessed with her music! She is a really musician to the new generations! I love her music !! Sadly I couldn’t buy tickets they were sold out in the presale 😢 I’m based in London, even she put an extra date and unfortunately in the first minute were sold out 😢 I think she has to come to Wembley arena or Royal Alberth Hall ❤❤❤❤

[@yaniehernandez4190]

I felt like crying while listening. Maybe because her voice and music soothed all worries I'm having right now. Thank you Laufey.

[@kopiboy7675]

Freakin unreal. ❤ I just cant believe there can be such as musician on this planet. Songwriter, vocals, cellist, pianist, guitar. Authentic, fresh yet classic. Equally at ease at guitar in her girly bedroom, or smack in a full blown orchestra. I can listen to this 3X a day, & still crave more the next day. There’s something in the way she moves… Slay

[@dontdothat9441]

Within the first few seconds of her singing, you hear it, she is the real deal!

[@jas_bataille]

We are witnessing the birth of a greater talent in singing-songwriting than anyone in the past 20 years alone, not using any of the tricks in the book, showing absolutely bare with just a guitar and a microphone, bewitching thousands of people. Stuff we haven't since The Beatles performed on a roof - and she is unsigned!!! She is independent... impossible. This is wizardry

Memories. You are building memories for your fans. 52 years ago, we attended an open-air performance by Joan Baez on a soccer field at Sacramento State College. It wasn't on any schedule. I don't recall how we learned this was going to happen. It was Joan with her guitar .. sitting on a folding chair. Memories. ❤

Thank you Laufey for writing Letter To My 13 Year Old Self because although I may not have had the exact same experience, I do relate to feeling out of place all of the time. It's the benefit of hindsight, looking back realising that your differences were positive / exciting opportunities. Such a beautiful song 💖

[@sammyismuff]

It’s so beautiful. Looking back and empathizing with my younger self was something that I did recently and it was so emotional, and now we have a Laufey song about it. We are all just little kids that grew up.
