Our Take

It’s hard to believe it’s been over 25 years since Eva Cassidy left us far too soon, but her impact on the music world lives on through her timeless recordings. Cassidy's posthumous album "I Can Only Be Me" is a bittersweet reminder of her incredible talent and the sheer depth of feeling she brought to every song.

From the very first track, Cassidy’s voice envelops you in warmth and vulnerability, creating an intimate connection that is impossible to resist. Her signature mix of folk, jazz, and blues shines through on every note, showcasing her unparalleled ability to make even the most familiar songs sound fresh and new.

Standout tracks like "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "Fields of Gold" are masterclasses in emotion, with Cassidy’s angelic voice soaring effortlessly over lush instrumentation. But it’s on the more subtle moments, like the hauntingly beautiful "Tennessee Waltz" and the soulful "What a Wonderful World," where Cassidy truly shines, proving that she was a vocal powerhouse unlike any other.

While "I Can Only Be Me" may not offer anything radically different from Cassidy’s previous releases, it serves as a poignant reminder of her extraordinary talent and serves as a fitting tribute to a true music icon. Eva Cassidy may only be one in a million, but her voice will echo through the ages, reminding us all of the power of music to heal, inspire, and captivate.
