I'm excited to announce that two of my songs have been nominated for the JPF Awards, a independent musician's award show held in Nashville. Out of the "42K albums and 560K songs submitted in the largest music awards of any kind in world history," two of mine made it. 'It's Too Late' nominated for Best Blues, and 'Love Me Right' for best R&B!

Care to recycle Boston?

Ok i'm not a crazy activist, but I do really care about the environment and try to do what I can. Knowledge is the weapon here, I have heard of so many easy ways to do little things that make a big difference. I've seen that recycling is not a huge priority in Boston, but it's in existance, so that's something! I want to make it even better, if you do too sign this petition! xoxox

New Show Alert!

150 Canal Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02114
Come hear my Originals mixed with some hot covers at the Boston Music Festival. I play 9-10pm.
The festival starts at 7pm with a new band each hour, so come early and grab a drink then stay for my set!

A lot of fans have been asking what i'm up to musically at the moment, so I thought I'd update everyone here. Currently I'm swamped with my other band The Boston Players doing GB gigs, so my solo gigs are on hold for a month or so.
I've been writing new material for my next album which could be recorded in a year. I'm writing a lot more up-tempo songs and including different ethnic grooves that i've always loved. I'm continuing to use what inspires me. My album, The Eclectic Collection, is doing very well on Itunes and other internet based stores. Other than that i'm enjoying my summer and finding new inspiration every day! I am so very thankful for all of the support I have out there.
xx Ingrid

A Note about my Album Release Launch Party

I want to thank everyone who came out to my album release party last night, May 17th. I was so touched to see you all there supporting me. Some of you drove from other states to come, and I greatly appreciate it! I can't thank ya'll enough. I had such a great time performing my songs, and I hope you all did too. I want to thank my band and background singers for the wondeful job they all did. I want to thank Lucky's Lounge, Alex MacDougall, Bill Costa, Mike the manager and all of the staff there for the wonderful reception they gave me.
This album is so important to me and I am so happy to have had the chance to release it here in Boston, and share my launch with all of my friends, fans, and supporters!
