Laufey — A Matter of Time (IEX)
Indie Exclusive Autumn Edition on Rouge Vinyl
Laufey’s third album, A Matter of Time, is a beautiful masterpiece of introspection about the anguish that comes with life and love. Laufey has captivated a generation with virtuosic songs of love and self-discovery by manifesting her vision of jazz and classical-infused pop music. But after becoming the youngest ever recipient of the Grammy for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album (Bewitched), the Icelandic-Chinese composer, singer, producer and multi-instrumentalist feels freer than ever to, as she puts it, “let my heart wander.”
For her third album, A Matter of Time, Laufey teams with fellow producers Spencer Stewart and Aaron Dessner to break the set of expectations she herself set, serving up a transcendent sound and honest writing that cuts to the heart. It’s the culmination of an incredible journey that began with her playing cello with the Iceland Symphony as a teen before writing her first charting single while studying at Berklee College of Music.
Laufey’s many achievements have since grown to include 4.25 billion global streams, a social media audience of 23 million, the biggest jazz LP debut in Spotify history, an album in Billboard’s Top 20, a pile of Platinum plaques, a Forbes 30 Under 30 designation, and, in 2025, being named one of TIME’s Women of the Year. She’s also: 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 with artists ranging from Beabadoobee to Norah Jones.
The Indie Exclusive Autumn Edition contains one LP pressed on a rich Rouge vinyl, Indie Exclusive 24" seasonal calendar poster with lyrics and unique photo, “Autumn” note from Laufey, seven inch, and photo sleeve.
