Ingrid Gerdes

Boston Soul-Blues singer Ingrid Gerdes’ gospel-meets-R&B voice has earned her more than one comparison to greats like Irma Thomas and Mavis Staples. Ingrid has a timeless voice that brings a hauntingly familiar but fresh edge to Soul and Blues music, capturing the charged, Neo-Soul of an Amy Winehouse at times, but also the sensuous feel of a legendary soul singers from a bygone era. Her lyrics are bitingly brilliant in a survivor's don't-mess-with-me way, but also hopelessly romantic when the mood strikes. Ingrid's command, her presence and her skill are all world class.
