Ingrid Lucia

One of the amazing things about New Orleans that i miss more than anything is the MUSIC. There is no better feeling than going out on a random night of the week and stumbling upon some great band or musician playing around town. I have no end to my favorite New Orleans musicians, but one that sticks in my mind and really makes me miss those New Orleans nights is Ingrid Lucia.


This is me and Ingrid (I am not friends with her, but I did happen to meet her) on one of my last nights of celebration before I moved from New Orleans.

Ingrid's style is nothing less than a beautiful homage to the sexy, yet demure jazz singers of the past however she brings it up to date with her original songs and fresh spunk. Her music will woo you into a jazz laden dream and send you off into New Orleans dancing the night away. "Sunny Afternoon" is one of my favorite songs of all times, literally it can transpose me into a good mood anytime I hear it and now that Summer is literally over here in Iowa and it has already dropped into the 50's, this song just makes me forget about the dreary winter ahead. Check out "Sunny Afternoon" and all of Ingrid's other music and shows coming up at her website at http://www.ingridlucia.com
