Laufey review – charming retro romance from a deserved Grammy winner | Music

‘This next song is a love song. I know! She does those?” Laufey is softly backlit, with a cherry-red electric guitar strapped over a white blouse, and despite her wry humour she’s about to perform another dreamily romantic song from her second album Bewitched, which last week won the Grammy for best traditional pop.Blending jazz and classical influences into pop to tell retro, soft-focus fantasies full of “wine-stained lips”, handsome strangers and heartbreak, even Laufey’s most cynical songs are cinematic romances.

‘I am the ultimate UK vocalist!’ Flowdan, the first British MC to win a Grammy | Music

It has been two days since Marc Veira, AKA Flowdan, woke up to a flurry of messages and missed calls congratulating him on becoming the first British MC to win a Grammy. “I wasn’t expecting to win so I wasn’t waiting for the news,” he says by video-call from his east London home. “I still haven’t even celebrated.

‘An audio ball-pit overflowing with ear candy’: readers on this year’s Grammy snubs | Music

‘A poignant and personal album’I was surprised to see Foo Fighters snubbed in the rock categories, particularly the rock album and rock song of the year. But Here We Are was a poignant and personal album which dealt with the loss of Taylor Hawkins, grief and the future. It was a solid return to form for the band and with its circumstances, I could have seen them win some Grammys. Saying that, Queens of the Stone Age’s In Times New Roman … was a superb album that also deserved the award. Michael Taylor, Weymouth, 30,…
