ASCAP EXPO

In the past year, singer-songwriter Ingrid Michaelson has evolved from overachieving indie-pop sweetheart to bona-fide pop star.  Since 2007, when her song “The Way I Am” burrowed its way into hearts around the world (and sent ukulele sales soaring), the label she founded, Cabin 24 Records, has sold over one million albums and over 7 million singles. Her fifth studio album, Lights Out, was her highest charting debut yet, bowing at No. 4, and its debut single “Girls Chase Boys” spent 20 weeks on Billboard’s Hot 100, becoming her first Top 40 hit and introducing her to a whole new audience. Ingrid is a master at crafting indelible pop lyrics and melodies and her songs can veer from poignantly vulnerable ballads to confident, self-resilient anthems. In person, she is witty, charming and outrageously inappropriate. In short, she’s unforgettable. Don’t miss this sure-to-be lively session where Ingrid will share her experiences as one of the most successful independent artists of our time and perform some of her best-loved songs.
