Ingrid Andress Releases New Music Video for “More Hearts Than Mine”

For Atlantic Records/ Warner Music Nashville Artist Ingrid Andress, family is everything. Having been raised in a large family, the mega-talented singer-songwriter is reflecting on those experiences in her new video for “More Hearts Than Mine,” released yesterday (April 24).

In the poignant single, Andress reveals that a relationship going awry is bound to hurt more than just her.  “I rarely bring anybody I’m dating home to meet my family because they’re just such a sacred part of my life,” Andress revealed to Billboard, who premiered the video. “It came about from a real place of, ‘Just so you know, if you meet my family they’re very special people.’ It actually took me a few tries at recording it, because I kept tearing up and needed to take breaks…I hate crying in front of people. I’d have to step out and gather myself [but Sam and Derrick would say], ‘No, Ingrid. Come on and just cry. It’s fine.’”

We first heard the powerful track back in February when she played New York City’s Mercury Lounge. Co-written by Andress, Sam Ellis, and Derrick Southerland, “More Hearts Than Mine” is a simple, heart-wrenching tale of the devastation that a breakup can wreak upon a family.

Directed by Sam Siske, the video shows a young woman reflecting on a previous visit home with a former flame, as Andress sings the song’s narrative. The performances here are simple yet powerful, only serving to heighten the emotion conveyed by the track. Andress took to Twitter to share the video, writing, “Family is everything. Falling in love with somebody is incredible. When you combine the two, it’s a very vulnerable moment that can either be amazing or heartbreaking. I hope it resonates with y’all as much as it did for me.”
