Ingrid Michaelson -- FREE INSTORE

Ingrid Michaelson Free In-store Performance
Sunday, October 4th - Noon

A couple of years ago we were lucky enough to catch Ingrid as a star on the rise; she'd just released Girls and Boys and had established herself as a regular at the Hotel Café, but her song "Keep Breathing" hadn't yet become the defining example of music meets moment on network TV. If you remember the 2007 Season Finale of Grey's Anatomy when it was all song, then you are already intimately familiar with Ingrid's music. It was powerful, yet "The Way I Am" was even bigger (it was in the Old Navy commercial, c'mon, doesn't anyone listen to the radio anymore?). Anyway, Ingrid is stopping in to celebrate the release of her 2nd full-length album, Everybody. Ingrid is calling this one her "grown up" album, it's self-reflective and on it she wears her newfound maturity well. Ingrid's future was uncharted the last time she was here, but with her path much more apparent it is refreshing to see her enthusiasm to revisit the little shop where she did her first in-store.

Since we saw her last, Ingrid has appeared on Good Morning America, Live with Regis & Kelly, Late Night With Conan O'Brien, The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, NPR's Talk of the Nation, Fuse TV and she was a VH1 You Oughta Know artist. She has also been the subject of print features in publications as varied as the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The New Yorker, Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly and Billboard and she remembers her roots.

Please join us for this incredible opportunity to see Ingrid in an intimate setting for a special stripped down band performance. We have opened the guest list to anyone who purchases a copy of Everybody. Purchase includes priority entry and an event poster. On the chance there's still room as we get closer we will make it first come, first served beginning at 11am Friday. (Please note, we're unable to offer guest list priority with online purchase, so give us a call or come on in.)

You can wrap your head around some of the new songs on Ingrid's myspace page.
