I’m thrilled to share the announcement of Laufey’s upcoming concert film, “Laufey’s A Night at the Symphony: Hollywood Bowl.” During her headlining performance at the iconic Hollywood Bowl in August, the Icelandic-Chinese-American artist captivated nearly 18,000 fans, and now her mesmerizing show will hit theaters and IMAX screens on December 6th.
Laufey, the 25-year-old Grammy-winning musician, took the stage at the Hollywood Bowl and delivered a stunning set, performing over two dozen songs, including 11 of her own tracks and 15 alongside the renowned Los Angeles Philharmonic.
“It’s always been a dream of mine to present my music with the LA Philharmonic,” Laufey shared in a statement. “To be able to bring that concert to people way beyond L.A. and the Hollywood Bowl is so meaningful to me, especially as I come from so many different parts of the world, which have all played a part in inspiring my work and artistic journey.”
Sam Wrench, who recently helmed the acclaimed Taylor Swift concert film, promises to transport audiences to the magic of that unforgettable night at the Hollywood Bowl in his concert film. As Wrench expressed, “Capturing Laufey’s debut concert at the Hollywood Bowl was a dream; cinematically sublime with a scale and intimacy that is so evident in Laufey’s music.”
In a captivating preview of the film, Laufey commands the stage as she swirls through her most popular song to date, “From the Start,” captivating the crowd with her soaring vocals and emotive performance.
Laufey’s unique blend of jazz, pop, and classical influences has quickly garnered her a legion of devoted fans across the world. As Kymberli Frueh, SVP of Programming and Content Acquisitions at Trafalgar Releasing, explains, “Laufey’s artistry shines through as only concert film maestro and director, Sam Wrench, can orchestrate. Her authenticity has quickly garnered millions of fans across the world, captivated by her vocal range and emotional depth.”
With the release of “Laufey’s A Night at the Symphony: Hollywood Bowl” just around the corner, music lovers and cinephiles alike can look forward to an unforgettable cinematic experience that brings the magic of Laufey’s performance to the big screen.
