Chase Center Announces Laufey Show for Sept. 30

On the heels of announcing her highly anticipated forthcoming album [A Matter of Time](https://laufey.ffm.to/amatteroftime), coming August 22, and its lead single “[Tough Luck](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80bI08aoed4 "Tough Luck"),” GRAMMY®-winning Icelandic-Chinese artist, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Laufey has confirmed the “[A Matter of Time Tour](http://amatteroftimetour.com/)” in partnership with AEG Presents. Starting in September, the tour will see Laufey bringing her enchanting and theatrical live show to her largest North American venues to date including Madison Square Garden in New York City, Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Capital One Arena in Washington DC, TD Garden in Boston, among others, as well as the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. Suki Waterhouse (Memoir of a Sparklemuffin, I Can’t Let Go) will support on all dates. The Artist Presale along with VIP Package sales begin Tuesday, June 3 at 10AM local time with General Onsale starting Friday, June 6 at 10AM local time. Sign up for early access to tickets at [http://amatteroftimetour.com/](http://amatteroftimetour.com/). Additionally, Laufey recently announced [The Laufey Foundation](https://thelaufeyfoundation.org/), with the primary mission of supporting young musicians with the resources they need, especially through youth orchestras, to reach their full potential. $1 of each ticket sold on the “A Matter of Time Tour’ will go towards The Laufey Foundation. As Laufey began to craft A Matter of Time, she felt freer than ever. “Every new album for me is a blank book of stories to write,” she says, and it’s true. An artist who pours her life experiences into her work, she infused 2022’s Everything I Know About Love with coming-of-age tales revolving around leaving home, and for 2023’s GRAMMY®-winning Bewitched she dove headlong into young love. Brought to life with sweeping orchestral arrangements, interwoven strains of bossa nova and jazz, and Laufey’s honeyed alto, those albums cemented Laufey as a star who can make sounds from bygone eras feel timeless. Now on A Matter of Time, Laufey further crystalizes her singular sound—one still rooted in her beloved influences, but which forgoes any strict standards or rules. “I’m constantly thinking about classical and jazz, how to properly preserve them and pay homage.” For this album she continues to do so while also noting, “I just wanted to let my heart wander.” To that end, she teamed with a pair of co-producers, one comforting and familiar—Spencer Stewart who worked with Laufey on her first two albums —and one new to her but deeply attuned to artists looking to open up: Aaron Dessner (Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran). Feeling sonically unrestrained gave Laufey the space to share new sides of herself while exploring sometimes heavier themes. “People expect a pretty façade of girly clothes, fantastical stories, and romantic music,” she says. “This time, I was interested in seeing how I could draw out the most flawed parts of myself and look at them directly in the mirror.” A Matter of Time finds Laufey at her most daring—and also playful—as she captures the experience of “real love” in its many forms and what it means to observe as it strips you down to your most vulnerable and anxious.

Laufey (pronounced lay-vay) has captivated a generation with virtuosic songs of love and self-discovery by manifesting her vision of jazz-and classical-infused pop music. She has become a bridge for the older music she adores, from Chet Baker to Carole King to Ravel, by offering her bold interpretation to a younger crop of listeners who have become deeply connected over time. This was all by design — Laufey’s self-assigned raison d’être — and it worked, allowing her to bring to life the whimsical universe known as “Laufey Land.” Raised between Reykjavik and Washington, D.C., she learned piano and cello as a child, later studying at Berklee College of Music. There, she wrote her debut EP, 2021’s Typical of Me, whose striking single “Street by Street” debuted at No. 1 on Icelandic Radio—the first of many achievements that have grown to include 5 billion global streams, a social media audience of 25 million, the biggest jazz LP debut in Spotify history and an album in Billboard’s Top 20 (both for Bewitched), a growing pile of Platinum plaques, a Forbes 30 Under 30 designation, and being named one of TIME’s 2025 Women of the Year. She’s sold out the Hollywood Bowl, Radio City Music Hall, and London’s Royal Albert Hall; performed backed by the LA Phil, the National Symphony Orchestra, and the China Philharmonic Orchestra; shared the stage with the likes of Jon Batiste and Raye; and collaborated on records with artists ranging from Beabadoobee to Norah Jones.
