Eva Cassidy was a Washington D.C.-based vocalist known for her emotionally powerful interpretations of jazz, blues, folk, and pop standards. Her warm, intimate voice and deeply personal approach to beloved songs earned her a devoted following, though she remained largely unknown outside her local area until her posthumous career revival following her death from melanoma in 1996. Today, Eva is remembered as one of the most gifted interpreters of American songbook classics, with her live recordings continuing to move audiences worldwide.
