3x GRAMMY-nominated singer-songwriter, Ingrid Andress has announced her highly anticipated sophomore album, Good Person

On Good Person, Andress returns to the reflection and confession at the core of her GRAMMY-nominated debut and plumbs even deeper. Out August 26th, the album features 12 tracks, all of which were co-written and co-produced by Andress.

“Making this album was one of the most painful processes I’ve ever been through, but it was also the brightest and the best,” Andress says. “The first album was me trying to discover who I was as an artist, but the last two years forced me to really sink into what my reality was and what I was feeling. It led me to what this album is, which is me realizing I wasn’t happy and that I needed to fix it.” 

Andress continues, “This album not only helped me grow as a person, but also as a producer. I realized how scared a lot of people are to push boundaries and how I am not, that’s my bread and butter,” she says. “Isn’t that the goal, to discover new things? What are we doing here if we’re not trying to make new art?”

Andress has given fans a glimpse into the upcoming album with her new song Pain. She speaks to a past version of herself in the song, reminding her that pain is a necessary and inevitable part of growing and ultimately highlights the parts of our lives where change is needed most. 

The accompanying music video, directed by Olivia Bee, follows Andress through a stormy period of self-reflection, where she eventually discovers a budding flower, showing that with pain comes new beginnings. 

“Sometimes you find yourself in situations where you know it’s going to hurt terribly, but you have to go through with it,” Andress says. “This song is a reminder that it's ok to feel sad and unhappy, but it won't always be that way. In a way, ‘Pain’ is the crux of the album, transitioning from the dark to the light. Writing this song was really a cathartic experience, and it made me feel understood, like I was listening to myself.”

Good Person will also feature the recently released song Seeing Someone Else and title track.

This album sees Andress entering the next chapter of her career following her record-breaking 2020 debut, Lady Like. The celebrated LP scored Andress 3 GRAMMY nominations including ‘Best New Artist’, ‘Best Country Album’, ‘Best Country Song’ for More Hearts Than Mine

Andress is also a 4x ACM Award, 3x CMA Award and 2x CMT Music Award nominee.
