About

Label: Patois Records

Bio: Uninterested in the soul-crushing machinery of the music business, vocalist Eva Cassidy quietly made music on her own terms in Washington, DC, earning a devoted local following before her death in 1996 at the age of 33. For Bay Area jazz singers Amikaeyla and Trelawny Rose, Cassidy is both a pote... See Full Bio

“Amikaeyla and Trelawny Rose have it, and clearly have been doing this kind of music together for a long time. Their singing is the highlight of every song and fans of vocal jazz as well as adult contemporary music should pay attention. This is all the more notable considering that these are all live recordings.”

— Donny Harvey, Muzikreviews.com

“The classical "Prelude" gives way to the sublime, re-harmonized version of "Over the Rainbow". Amikaeyla and Trelawny exchange phrases in "Time after time", one of Cindy Lauper most beautiful compositions. Both singers deliver exquisite solo performances, Trelawny on the gospel piece "People get ready" and the Irish classic "Danny Boy", Amykaeyla on the southern rock arrangement of Nightbird and the ballad "Autumn Leaves".”

— Wilbert Sostre, JazzTimes

“So unique and fresh are these interpretations that their paying tribute to a singular talent is but the gravy in this recording. Doug Macleod's "Nightbird" shimmers with Vince Mellone's slide guitar and Simon Rochester's churchy organ. "Danny Boy," with its trombone introduction, turns into an extended responsorial psalm, praising all that is right and good. The two singers weave harmonic lines carefully managing the intended tension. Cassidy's show-stopping "Wonderful World" proves the same on this, one of the finest recordings of the year. ”

— C. Michael Bailey, All About Jazz

"Amikaeyla and Rose hope to raise Cassidy's profile on the West Coast, to educate audiences about her music, to advocate for early testing for cancer, and to communicate just how entrancing Cassidy's voice was."

— WALLACE BAINE, Santa Cruz Sentinel

“The duo's enthusiasm spills over onto the new, deeply personal tribute album, "To Eva, With Love," the first of its kind, in which they cover the songs Cassidy imbued with such emotional depth. "She took these songs and made them her own," Gaston says. "So we took her arrangements and made them our own." The disc was recorded live at the Kuumbwa Jazz Center in Santa Cruz during the pair's second show together with a band that includes trombonist Wayne Wallace, percussionist John Santos, bassist David Belove, guitarist Vince Mellone, pianist Simon Rochester and drummer David Flores. ... On lively versions of songs such as "People Get Ready" and "Autumn Leaves," Amikaeyla and Trelawny Rose don't just summon Cassidy's gentle spirit; they give her material a new life.”

— Aidin Vaziri, San Francisco Chronicle
