Laufey officially extended his music publishing cooperation with Warner Chappell Music (WCM). This announcement confirms Laufey's position as a central figure in the revival of pop jazz music on the international scene, especially after he made history as the youngest Grammy winner for the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album category.
Since joining WCM in August 2023, the musician's career, a graduate of Berklee College of Music, has skyrocketed with billions of streams on digital music platforms and various prestigious awards that confirm his cultural influence in the modern era.
Responding to the continuation of this partnership, Laufey expressed his enthusiasm to continue collaborating with the Warner Chappell team.
"I'm really excited to continue the business with the great and forward-thinking people at Warner Chappell. Thank you to Gabz, Guy, Carianne, Ryan, and David for their trust and partnership," Laufey said, quoting the statement of the WCM upload, Thursday, April 9.
Through this collaboration, Laufey is expected to further expand the reach of his works to a wider global market.
Warner Chappell Music itself sees Laufey as a rare generation talent with visionary songwriting skills. Ryan Press, President of WCM North America, expressed his pride in supporting the artist's career journey.
"Laufey is a generational talent with a songwriting talent that feels timeless and yet entirely new. As a visionary with his own distinctive voice, he continues to break boundaries and bring fresh perspectives to everything he creates. We are proud to continue to support him at this exciting point in his career as he continues to define his global legacy," said Press.
This strategic step is also accompanied by plans to release a deluxe edition of the album "A Matter of Time: The Final Hour" on April 10, which includes four new songs.
Laufey's success is inseparable from his extraordinary productivity in recent years. After the success of the album "Bewitched" in 2024, he released his third album, "A Matter of Time", in August 2025, which immediately topped the Billboard Jazz charts.
The culmination was in February this year, when Laufey took home her second Grammy, beating a line-up of big musicians such as Lady Gaga to Barbra Streisand.
Currently, the musician who is adept at playing the cello is on a world tour that has sold out in 22 countries - proving that the appeal of his music crosses geographical and generational boundaries.
Not only in the field of music, Laufey also spread his wings into the world of literacy through his first children's book, "Mei Mei The Bunny", which is scheduled to be released on April 21 through Penguin Random House.
With a total of over 8 billion global streams and a social media fan base of 25 million people, Laufey is now not just a musician, but a cultural icon who continues to redefine the meaning of artistic impact on the world stage.
