Songbird: A Celebration of Eva Cassidy
Songbird: A Celebration of Eva Cassidy pays tribute to one of America's most renowned singers, who found posthumous fame with spellbinding interpretations of classic songs, including 'Over The Rainbow', 'Fields of Gold' and 'Songbird'. Four world-class musicians and passionate Eva Cassidy fans, blend their own interpretations with Eva's classic renditions.
Despite achieving little success in her short lifetime, Eva Cassidy has since become internationally celebrated for her timeless renditions of well-known songs, spanning folk, pop, jazz, blues and gospel. Eva's music has the power to captivate audiences; her voice angelic but full of emotional depth and maturity.
'Songbird: A Celebration of Eva Cassidy' honours Eva in a way that prioritises authenticity and heartfelt performance from four passionate jazz musicians. The show explores music from the only album released during her lifetime, 'Live at Blues Alley', which features full band performances of "People Get Ready" and "Wade in the Water", as well as stripped back covers of "Fields of Gold" and "Autumn Leaves". They also delve into the incredible music that was released posthumously, such as "Over the Rainbow" and "Songbird".
Sara Leanne is a world-touring professional musician, praised for her rich, smokey voice, elegant piano playing, and sensitive musicianship.
Aside from Songbird: A Celebration of Eva Cassidy – an offshoot of her jazz band Smoke & Honey – Sara is best known for performing the role of Christine McVie with Rumours of Fleetwood Mac, officially endorsed by Mick Fleetwood. She has also previously worked on productions of 'California Dreams: Sounds of LA 1965-75' and 'The Carole King & James Taylor Story' with tours across the UK and Australia, and as a guest entertainer aboard The World Luxury Residential Yacht.
