The INGRA (Ingrid Rabi) trio brings soloist Ingrid Rabi to the stage alongside recognized younger-generation musicians Mikk Kaasik and Johannes Laas.

Ingrid Rabi is a jazz vocalist, songwriter, and arranger whose work is defined by deep sensitivity. Her music blends rich harmonies with a sincere storytelling style. Ingrid describes music as her passion, creating and performing across various self-initiated projects. Composition is an integral part of her daily life, and when writing songs, she loves experimenting with exciting harmonies and rhythmic structures. Ingrid Rabi has released the studio album Olemine, the EP Circle of Love, and under the moniker INGRA, the EP Crawling Up a Hill, alongside several singles. In 2022, she scored her first short film, followed by a second film featuring her soundtrack in 2024. In autumn 2026, INGRA will release her new album Edasi, featuring top Estonian musicians: Mikk Kaasik (keyboards), Johannes Laas (guitar), Peedu Kass (bass), and Kristjan Kallas (drums).

Johannes Laas is a musician and composer who graduated from the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre and the Heino Eller Music College.

In 2019, Johannes received the Tiit Paulus Young Guitarist Award.
