Ingrid and the Ministers

Artist Info

Drawing comparisons to Joan Jett and The White Stripes, Ingrid and the Ministers are the candid blues-rock band emerging from the underground of New Zealand’s capital and, more recently, Melbourne. The band achieves a rare balance of vigorous raw emotion and humble greatness with riveting guitar solos and headbanging grooves. Ingrid’s songwriting, guitar, and singing pilots the band down pathways of expansive creative energy and electrifying live performances.

In 2023 the band released their sophomore album, ‘Boofhead’, garnering praise from Rolling Stone magazine and 13th floor, Marty Duda naming it “one of the best NZ albums of the year”. The track ‘Porcelain God’ was also featured in an episode of the ‘Brokenwood Mysteries’ on TVNZ. Ingrid has since release an intimate solo EP ‘Last Train Blues’ and is gearing up for her next band project.
