Sounds like: The result of a crazy one night stand between The Weepies and Kate Nash
It’s hard to say how long Ingrid Michaelson has been around. She only has two CD’s on itunes, both of which were made in the past 5 years, and one feature on a recent Joshua Radin song “Sky”. Despite seeming to only recently join the scene however, Ingrid Michaelson’s quirky songs speak to years of experience, both musical and otherwise. Heartwarming and heartbreaking, her lyrically excellent songs speak of just how bittersweet life, love and music truly can be. From the brisk cautionary schoolyard song “Charlie”, to the sweet love song about acceptance that is “The Way I Am”, Ingrid’s views on life and relationships are as faceted as her skill with her craft. A truly talented singer/songwriter, I wholeheartedly believe she is on the verge of becoming an enormous success, without compromising a single thing. Until then however, she’ll just have to be contented with being one of indie pop music’s best kept secrets.
Standout Tracks: Die Alone, Breakable, The Way I Am
Best Played: Anytime you need to smile.
Current Resume: Slow the Rain (2005), Girls and Boys (2007), featured on Joshua Radin’s Unclear Sky – EP (2008)
Recommended Research: Let Go, Charlie, I’ll See You In My Dreams, all off of 2005’s Slow The Rain
