EXCITING
NEWS FOR ALL EVA CASSIDY FANS!
I'm
happy to announce that the Cassidy family has engaged Academy
Award winning director Nigel Noble to create a long
overdue feature length documentary film on the life, art, and
music of the legendary Eva Cassidy. For Eva's Song,
we will be interviewing dozens of Eva's family, friends and fellow
musicians throughout 2012. Mr. Noble will have unprecedented access
to never-before-seen films, home movies, and artwork. Perhaps
most important to all of us who love Eva's music, the film will
include many previously unheard recordings-from her earliest demo
attempts, to rehearsals, outtakes, unreleased masters and original
compositions. These will make for a compelling accompanying CD
release. If all goes as scheduled, Eva's Song will
premiere in theatres on February 2, 2013, on what would have been
Eva's 50th birthday, followed by a worldwide DVD release. (please
see update below (ed.). A portion
of the profits will go to the Eva Cassidy Foundation, which will
support the aspirations of deserving, talented musicians everywhere.
