INGVAY

Roots Rock, Blues & Americana – Made in Europe

With four studio albums, a live DVD, and numerous concerts across Europe, INGVAY has built a loyal and steadily growing audience. His releases have received national and international radio airplay, including Deutschlandfunk Kultur, NDR Info, RBB, SWR1, as well as stations in the USA, UK, Benelux, France, and Italy.

Musically, INGVAY stands for Blues, Roots Rock, and Americana—combined with a distinctly European perspective and a clear artistic identity. His songs explore movement and arrival, friendship, new beginnings, and the things that endure. Honest songwriting, strong melodies, and an organic band sound define his work.

For more than twenty years, INGVAY has worked as a sound engineer and musician on stages and in studios across Europe. His career has led him to collaborate with artists such as Roger Cicero, Heinz Rudolf Kunze, Max Mutzke, Thomas D, Wolfgang Niedecken, Söhne Mannheims, Hannelore Elsner, and Ulrich Tukur, as well as international acts including Chilly Gonzales, Lizz Wright, and Johnny Logan.

In 2026, he released his fifth album, “Still Moving.” The eleven tracks blend Blues, Roots Rock, and Americana with themes of resilience, change, belonging, and the art of staying in motion. The result is a powerful, grounded, and contemporary record—shaped by a close-knit band of long-time musical companions.

Live

On stage, INGVAY performs with a band defined not only by musical excellence but also by long-standing collaboration and trust. The live shows combine energy, dynamics, and audience connection with a sound that appeals to fans of Roots Rock, Blues, Americana, and classic Rock alike.

INGVAY & Band deliver authentic live music, strong craftsmanship, and songs that last.
