Laufey is Laufey Lín Bing Jónsdóttir. She is cool, her music is cool, her twin sister is cool, her jazz arrangements are cool, her family are cool and her country, obviously – from sticking it to the banks to producing Bjork - is extremely cool. A finance executive, it was his jazz collection that introduced a young Laufey to the charms of Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday. While her twin went to St Andrews in Scotland, Laufey went to Berkley College of Music in Boston on a Presidential Scholarship. My chances now of a “Cool Dads Enjoy Laufey” T-shirt are minimal.
