Exciting News Unveiled for Williamsburg Live 2024
The Virginia Arts Festival has just dropped a musical bombshell, revealing the first artist for the Williamsburg Live 2024 festival! Drumroll, please…
LAUFEY
Sunday, June 23, 2024
Mark your calendars because tickets go on sale at 10 AM on Friday, January 19, 2024.
Why Laufey?
Variety describes her ascendency as “one of the most heartening musical phenomena of the last couple of years.” The Icelandic-Chinese artist, pronouncing her name as lāy-vāy, draws inspiration from Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, and Taylor Swift. Her streaming stats are through the roof, with over six million TikTok views and the most-streamed jazz debut on Spotify. Her album “Bewitched” even snagged a GRAMMY nomination!
Musical Fusion
Laufey is classically trained, jazz-forward, pop-influenced, and entirely her own artist. She’s making waves and winning hearts with her witty, irresistible songs. From classics like “Misty” to her own creations, her performances are instant sellouts.
