Ingrid Andress made headlines after being criticized for her performance of the National Anthem at the MLB home derby on Monday, July 15.

Although this certainly raised the singer to a pedestal, there is much more to know about her. Learn more about Ingrid here!
After the clip started gaining popularity, many people compared the performance to Fergie’s rendition of the national anthem at the 2018 NBA All-Star game, where she was also criticized. «That national anthem by Ingrid Andress might be the worst event in America in the last 48 hours», - wrote one person.
Ingrid released her debut album «Lady Like» in 2020, and in 2022 she released a follow-up titled «Good Person». In 2023, she released her EP «The Last Day They Were on the Same Page Was in a Yearbook», - as well as a holiday song «Once a Year».
Although performing the national anthem may come as a surprise to some viewers, Ingrid has actually been nominated for several Grammy awards. She received three nominations in the categories of Best Country Song, Best Country Album, and Best New Artist.
Before her success in her solo career, Ingrid was a member of the a cappella group Pitch Slapped. The group appeared on the NBC reality show «The Sing Off». Ingrid’s group ultimately placed sixth.
While she has performed many of her own songs, Ingrid has also been involved in creating tracks for other artists. Her biggest hit is likely the song «Boys» by Charli XCX, which she also released in her own version. She also wrote the song «Girl in the Mirror» for Bebe Rexha. She also wrote the song «Conflicted» for the hard rock band Halestorm
