Christian Ingebrigtsen
In 2003 Christian started his career as a solo artist. His debut was the specially written duet In Love with an Angel for the new talent Maria Arredondo and himself. The song became a smash hit, staying 3 months on the top 10 list of VG-Lista Topp 20 (Norway's official single chart). The chemistry between the two was perfect, and Christian even wrote the song True Friendship for her debut album. In May of the same year he made his debut as a solo performer with the song Things Are Gonna Change. Christian had landed a contract with Universal Records and despite his fans in other countries from his a1-period, he chose to concentrate on the Norwegian market. The single went straight to number one on VG Lista Topp 20. A successful transition from boyband to pop-star was sealed with the popular radio hit Take Back Yesterday in November 2003.

His debut solo album was released December 27, 2003. Titled Take Back Yesterday it was backed up by a massive ad campaign on TV. The album was mainly produced by Christian himself, and the songs written largely by himself. The critics weren't too convinced but that didn't seem to stop Norwegian record buyers. The album made its debut at number 6 on the official album chart, VG Lista Topp 40, climbed to number 2 and stayed on as one of the ten most sold albums for two months. His duet with Maria Arredondo, In Love with an Angel was nominated as Song of the Year for Spellemannprisen (Norwegian Grammys), but lost to World Idol-winner Kurt Nilsen's smash hit She's So High. The third single from the album, Can't Give Up, was released in March 2004 and became another radio favorite.

In February 2005 he split with Universal and was signed by EMI. He is currently spending most of his time working on his second solo album.

In July 2007 Christian released his new single "Adorable", rumours say his new album will be out in September.
