Ingrid Michaelson Everybody LP (Vinyl)

A New York-based indie-pop singer-songwriter, Ingrid Michaelson is known for being an independent artist and never signing to a major record label, despite achieving a large amount of popularity. In 2009, Michaelson released her fourth album, Everybody. Everybody debuted on #18 on the Billboard charts and received positive reviews for the album itself and also for the single "Maybe." Michaelson has stated that Everybody is "completely autobiographical, snapshots of my life." The main theme of the album, as stated by Michaelson, is "everybody wants to be loved."

"Everybody's strongest assets are its upbeat pop tunes. Michaelson has graduated from the coffeehouse to the concert hall, after all, and tracks like 'Soldier' -- with its deliberate phrasing and neo-military percussion -- aim for the cheap seats at the back of a venue... 'Everybody,' a campfire singalong fueled by strummed ukulele, could be the female answer to Jason Mraz's 'I'm Yours,' while 'Mountain and the Sea' is downright irresistible, its handclapped rhythm and buoyant chorus combining to create Michaelson's strongest song to date... Rarely does an independent album sound so assured, so polished, and so agreeable." - Andrew Leahey, allmusic.com
