Laufey Holiday Collection grows with a dreamy new take on a Christmas classic
GRAMMY-winning artist Laufey brings warmth and nostalgia this Christmas with her latest release, a tender rendition of “Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town.”
The LA-based Icelandic-Chinese artist adds the timeless song to her growing Laufey Holiday Collection, a yearly tradition that began in 2021. Each release captures her signature blend of jazz, classical influence, and emotional storytelling.
The tradition started with “Love To Keep Me Warm” featuring dodie, followed by “The Christmas Waltz” in 2022 and “Christmas Dreaming” in 2023. Last year, Laufey delighted fans with a charming version of “Santa Baby,” complete with a music video starring Bill Murray. She also recorded an Amazon Music exclusive, “Christmas Magic,” which now joins her A Very Laufey Holiday collection.
This year’s addition, “Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town,” keeps Laufey’s signature dreamy tone. Her smooth vocals and delicate instrumentation turn the upbeat tune into a cozy, nostalgic experience that fits perfectly into her growing holiday discography.
The release comes after the success of her latest album, A Matter of Time, which debuted at #4 on the Billboard 200 and topped the Jazz Albums chart. Co-produced with Spencer Stewart and Aaron Dessner, the album highlights Laufey’s evolving artistry—unbound by genre yet steeped in emotion and musical precision.
With A Very Laufey Holiday, fans can expect a seamless mix of jazz warmth, modern storytelling, and timeless Christmas charm.
