Ingrid Andress is a thoroughly modern pop star, one who disregards the boundaries separating genres...or formats, for that matter. Good Person is technically Andress' first full-length album, arriving on the heels of Lady Like, the 2020 debut EP that was later expanded into a deluxe edition the length of an album -- an album like Good Person, for instance. The expanded version of Lady Like gave Andress room to demonstrate that she's far from a conventional country singer, finding space for a cover of Charli XCX's "Boys" and a song that interpolated the Beach Boys' day-drinking standard "Kokomo." From there, Andress pivots into a provocative pop album where a guest appearance by Sam Hunt on the finale, "Wishful Drinking," offers a reminder that Andress is nominally a country singer. The rest of Good Person hardly sounds like country -- the smooth digital gloss camouflages any lingering steel guitar or other rustic instrumentation -- but Andress has absorbed the fundamentals of country songwriting, which means that all her songs have sturdy, melodic bones. She fleshes out her tunes with lots of electronic flair, relying on pitch-shifted vocals and seamless overdub, studio tricks that allow such moments of quiet reflection like "Talk" to sound like Lorde and give the hooks on "How Honest Do You Want Me to Be?" a retro-'80s sheen. If Andress doesn't delve into new territory on Good Person, it's only because she's dedicating herself to flawlessly executing the blueprint she established on Lady Like, winding up with a glassy, amorphous pop album that shifts through styles while she remains firmly, compellingly at the center. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
