🎶 teenage me would have simply fainted!

🎶 teenage me would have simply fainted! this was such a special experience and i’m so grateful for Lincoln Center for inviting me - because I wouldn’t have known this was happening otherwise! DEFINITELY check out their full calendar, friends. @lincolncenter 🎭 show mentioned: Ingrid Michaelson & Friends: The Time and Space Between Us 📍location: Lincoln Center about the show: Platinum-certified, GRAMMY and Emmy-nominated singer-songwriter Ingrid Michaelson’s twenty-year recording career has yielded nine albums, multiple television soundtracks, and a hit Broadway musical. Michaelson’s most recent work, including her 2024 LP For the Dreamers, embraces an introspective mode, a direction that she’ll bring to full fruition for her headlining American Songbook concert at David Geffen Hall. Known for her delicate storytelling and hypnotic melodies, Michaelson—accompanied by a surprise selection of luminary friends from the pop and theater world—turns her lyrical gaze inward in a new concert that explores the ties that bind us across time and space. Drawing sweet insights and wisdom from her personal life, The Time and Space Between Us carries the echoes of relationships past and present, exploring how time shapes identity, and how familial and love stories live on in all of us. about the series: For more than 25 years, Lincoln Center’s American Songbook has provided artists with the opportunity to reimagine the foundational music and theater that originally brought them to the stage. The 2026 season of Songbook, curated by Lincoln Center Artist-in-Residence Clint Ramos, opens up the cupboard of American musical history and finds it beautifully, excitingly full. Through vivid productions of intimate performances, powerhouse concerts, and electrifying, genre-crossing events, we celebrate the unique art forms that our country has produced: the jazz ballad, the Broadway showtune, gospel spirituals, house music, and pop hits. Ramos’s expansive curation reveals an American identity built from many voices and many histories. Come and explore a new dimension of American music! #ingridmichaelson #nycconcert #musicaltheatre #nyctheatre #nycinfluencer
