Eva Cassidy was an American vocalist of remarkable interpretive gift, famous for her intimate renderings of songs across genres. Though she passed away in 1996, her recordings have found an ever-growing audience. "Songbird 20" (2018, Blix Street Records) is a retrospective of Cassidy's interpretive art, drawing from her catalog of covers and original material. Her approach was simple: strip songs down to their emotional core and sing with absolute honesty. She moves from jazz standards to pop songs to folk material with equal grace. Her voice is warm and direct, never mannered, and her phrasing shows deep engagement with each lyric. If you love singers like Joni Mitchell or Anita Baker, Cassidy's approach will resonate. This is an excellent introduction to her world and a strong recommendation for anyone who believes in the power of a great voice.
