Ingrid and the Ministers Interview | Frumess

Ingrid and the Ministers are a candid psychedelic rock ’n’ roll band transmitting from the underground of New Zealand’s capital, achieving a rare balance of vigorous raw emotion and humble greatness, piloting the band down pathways of expansive creative energy. A craftful songwriter, her potent and melodic vocals are a vehicle for lyrical brilliance. Born and raised in Grenoble, France, Ingrid moved to Pōneke/ Wellington as a teenager and has lived there since, starting the band in 2018. Joining her on lead and rhythm guitar is James Morgan, then Scott Maynard on bass and Kim Andrews on drums. Boofhead is the latest offering from this NZ based outfit, and acts as a purging and two fingers up to the injustice in the world dominated by a patriarchal society. Confrontation runs through Boofhead’s veins and tackles the doomed reality of a relationship with an older man- something which is a microcosm of a bigger systematic power imbalance.

In true DIY fashion, the first album from Ingrid and the Ministers in 2020 ‘Kill the Sights’ was recorded in the ex-guitar player’s garage, with the wavering single Pepper & Sand garnering praise from Youtuber Matt Orchard’s Crime and Society series when it featured on an episode. The album captures their signature live sound, and at times fittingly atonal melodies with showers of hard-hitting choruses. With their new album compressing a world of innovative expression and UK tour dates to follow, Ingrid and the Ministers’ fresh creative freedom bursts when performing on stage, leaving a lasting impression with audiences who get to experience it.
