The EP was recorded in Hollywood, California with Grammy-winning producer Jeffrey Weber and a band of renowned musicians.
On April 30, “Walking That Fine Line” is out on the streaming services. Ingrid Vingelen-Digre from Soknedal is looking forward to that.
– The opportunity to work with Jeff, the production team and the incredibly talented musicians and singers made for an unforgettable experience, she says, who hopes the project will be the next step in her career as a singer and songwriter.
To Hollywood to record. – Totally surreal
– I am extremely grateful and happy that I was given this opportunity. Furthermore, I hope this will open new doors for me, says Vingelen-Digre.
The project contains an original song (the title track) and 3 cover songs that show the breadth of the Soknedals girl as an artist.
With these songs, she gets to show off her communication skills and evocative distinctiveness with her vocals in a modern pop context.
– Passion and commitment
In 2022, Ingrid Vingele-Digre participated in the World Championship in Performing Arts in Hollywood, where Jeff Webber heard her for the first time. According to Weber, it didn’t take long from the time he heard Ingrid’s voice to understand that she had a special gift.
Ingrid and Leonardo went to the top in the WC!
– Ingrid is a pleasure to work with because she understands what is required to be able to record music of the highest quality. She has a passion and commitment to her music that makes a producer’s job incredibly rewarding, reports the producer in a press release.
In a somewhat unorthodox approach, compared to modern production methods, Weber did the project “live” in the studio. This is to take advantage of Ingrid’s lively commitment, careful preparation, dedication to vocal performance and the joy of performing. This led to a dissemination of this EP, which Ingrid hopes you will greatly enjoy.
The EP will be available at over 200 digital e-retailers worldwide.
