Composer, singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Laufey continues her story by writing and recording Bewitched, her second album. Inspired by jazz greats and classical masters while possessing a point of view that could only be conveyed by a 21st-century twentysomething, Bewitched represents an expansion of Laufey’s sonic palette. Tracks like the breezy bossa nova cut “From The Start” and the smoldering string-assisted ballad “Promise” have classic songcraft and intricate arrangements that make them feel instantly timeless, while Laufey’s conversational lyrics give her music a relatability to the next generation of jazz, pop, and classical aficionados.

Laufey returns on the heels of her GRAMMY win for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album to bring you her next fittingly titled era: Goddess. "Goddess" is the lead single to The Goddess Edition of her #1 Independent Album, Bewitched. The Goddess era introduces a new narrative. Laufey has more complex ideas about love, driven by her experience of being perceived as polished and perfect - an immortal goddess. “Goddess is my most honest song yet. I wrote it alone at my piano after feeling like someone had fallen in love with the version of me they'd seen on stage, just to find that I wasn't what they projected once I was off stage. They deemed me to no longer be a shiny thing when the glamor wore off, reduced to skin and bone.” -Laufey
