Music Lexus and Icelandic-Chinese artist Laufey will celebrate the centennial of jazz legend Miles Davis with \u2018100 Miles,\u2019 a live-streamed performance event on March 27th at an undisclosed location.<\/h2>\n

According to pre-event details shared with Digital Music News, the concert will feature the world debut of Laufey\u2019s lyrical interpretation of Davis\u2019 classic \u201cBlue In Green,\u201d alongside the unveiling of a new electric vehicle created in partnership with Lexus. That\u2019s right, the AWAL\/Sony-inked Laufey is now designing customized cars in addition to creating Grammy-winning albums.<\/p>\n

\u201cMiles Davis understood the roots of jazz\u2014and then reinvented it,\u201d Laufey relayed. \u201cThat spirit of honoring the past while moving it forward is what makes this tribute so meaningful.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Lexus, the event looks like a broader image-shaping campaign aimed at the cool, musically sophisticated crowd. That\u2019s a perfect match for Laufey, whose career ascent now includes a monster branding deal. \u201cOur collaboration with Laufey is about celebrating jazz, inspiring creativity, and giving fans an unforgettable experience,\u201d wrote Sara Lara, Senior Manager of Lexus marketing. \u201cWe\u2019re blending heritage, artistry, and innovation, much like jazz itself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sounds like a high-brow event, though the swankiness will be televised and uploaded, thanks to serious involvement from Amazon properties Amazon Music and Twitch.<\/p>\n

On that \u2018note,\u2019 the event marks Laufey\u2019s debut on her newly launched Twitch channel,<\/a> streaming live for global audiences and a small in-person crowd. The performance will combine Laufey\u2019s repertoire with new works, highlighted by her version of \u201cBlue In Green,\u201d which originally featured on Davis\u2019 1959 album Kind of Blue<\/em> and is the best-selling jazz album of all time.<\/h4>\n

In tribute to what would have been Davis\u2019 100th birthday in 2026, Lexus has tapped Laufey to develop her own take on Davis\u2019 iconic composition as an Amazon Music Original track. Available exclusively on Amazon Music beginning March 27, Laufey adds original lyrics and her unmistakable voice to the song while honoring the restraint and timeless beauty of Davis\u2019 original.<\/p>\n

And it looks like Lexus is blowing this one out. According to the invite, Lexus is unveiling a one-of-one \u2018Blue In Green\u2019 Edition RZ\u2014a custom electric vehicle inspired by Davis\u2019 music and Laufey\u2019s aesthetic.<\/p>\n
