Happy Boxing Day! All during this holiday week, enjoy some of our favorite Reset conversations of 2024 – like our conversation with Grammy winner Laufey.
A jazz icon to some, a breakout pop star to others, the Icelandic-Chinese singer Laufey has skyrocketed into popularity. Her debut album dropped in 2020, and just three years later she won a Grammy for her 2023 album “Bewitched.” Reset revisits our conversation with the 25-year-old for more on stardom and how her lyrics resonate with fans of all ages.
