Ingrid Michaelson


If you've watched any television within the past two weeks, then you've probably caught the latest Old Navy ad for the store's new line of Fair Isle sweaters. The spot features an infectious track, intoned by a soothing voice that's a cross between Regina Spektor on painkillers and Lisa Loeb on ... well, nothing. If you're a fan of "Grey's Anatomy," you're probably already familiar with this singer's work. She's 26-year-old Staten Island, New York, native Ingrid Michaelson, an unsigned musician who still lives at home with her parents — hey, it frees her up for touring — and whose song "Keep Breathing" punctuated the show's dramatic season-three finale, which was seen by more than 25 million viewers. Still, Michaelson likes the fact that she's still somewhat anonymous. She can walk down the street without anyone asking for her autograph, and for her, life's still fairly normal. It's when she plays gigs that it hits her. "That's when I feel the change," she said, "because people want to meet me and they want my autograph. That's the only difference I've noticed."

WE SAY: We could listen to her all day.
