Laufey Announces New Album A Matter of Time, Shares Song
Briefly

Laufey, the Icelandic Chinese singer-songwriter, has announced her upcoming album 'A Matter of Time,' set for release on August 22. The album is produced by Aaron Dessner and Spencer Stewart, featuring the lead single "Tough Luck," which explores themes of emotional turmoil and anger stemming from a failed relationship. Laufey aims to reveal her flawed self, contrasting with her previous image of fanciful stories and romantic music. She is also set to embark on a tour with various orchestras to promote the album.
"Tough Luck,' which leads the album, is a fiery song about love gone wrong... I wanted to reveal an angrier side of myself-a side that this unfortunate relationship brought out in me."
"People expect a pretty façade of girly clothes, fantastical stories, and romantic music. 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."
