Simply Eva
Eleven tracks of pure, unadorned voice and acoustic guitar. A masterclass in interpretive singing that feels like a private concert in a quiet room.

Simply Eva is an exercise in the power of subtraction. While Eva Cassidy's previous posthumous releases often featured posthumous band arrangements or studio polish, this collection presents her exactly as she was in her most vulnerable state: just a woman, her guitar, and a microphone. The result is an album that feels less like a commercial product and more like a private confession. Every intake of breath and every slight buzz of a guitar string is preserved, creating a sense of physical proximity that is almost startling. It is the sound of a performer who is not trying to impress an audience, but rather trying to inhabit the soul of a song.
