Ingrid Andress writes songs that have a way of digging up clear-headed truths. In her Tiny Desk concert, she performs three tracks from across her catalog.
performs and speaks with a humility that feels inversely proportional to the scale of her success. Given that she's already received four Grammy nominations, and that her team had to navigate NPR's busy and construction-forward Washington, D.C., neighborhood in a tour bus only slightly smaller than an aircraft carrier, that adds up to a fair bit of humility.

Between songs at the Tiny Desk, she wrangled with her place in country music — as a Colorado-bred singer-songwriter who sings and speaks without a twang — and with the truths she's capturing and conjuring in her songs."Yearbook," about a curdled high-school romance, appears to be about her parents, but that required an explanation, too:"I always have to say, it's not about my parents.
All three of the songs she played at the Tiny Desk —"Yearbook," her 2020 breakthrough ballad"More Hearts Than Mine" and her current country hit"Feel Like This" — have ways of digging up clear-headed truths, no matter how she came about locating them.
