This singer(Laufey) trying to bring back a sound that's older than most of the people who listen to it.

It's not the sound, its her voice.
The first vid is latin jazz/bossanova but the song makes it sort of this pop crossover.

Second is simply a jazz solo.

But it's her voice. A tinge jazzy but it seems more suitable for Big Band? I don't know, can't really place it but her voice kinda takes it a bit out of the jazz atmosphere.

Still not bad. Good positive music and she's actually a musician. :ehh:

She describes Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald as influences. On her page she has the chords and all the behind the scenes shyt so she's actually teaching people how to play her music.

This was dope. That was songwriting and she's obviously very musical. I don't know what these kids are on, so who knows.

It'll for sure be played in Starbucks and coffee places though.

Right on time for the Holidays.

You could really hear those influences. I just listened to a couple more of her videos. Her voice is actually very versatile. Some songs sounding more crossover while she has those that sound traditionally jazzy. I like her.
