Misery Loves Company - The Story of Eva Cassidy

The Story Of Eva Cassidy – A Wela Kapela Production She never wrote her own music. She never sang her own songs. Her most important album was self-financed; her breakthrough music video was shot on a handheld camera; her largest audience was a handful of people. She died at the age of 33. Then she rose to #1 and sold over 10 million albums. "The Story of Eva Cassidy" is at once beautiful and tragic; the stuff legends are made of. With "Fields Of Gold", "Over The Rainbow" and "Fever", as well as familiar jazz, gospel and blues numbers, this one-hour tribute show will have you laughing, crying, and celebrating a singer who was discovered too late. Guitarist Rob Thompson and drummer Kristo Zondagh complete the live trio alongside Kerry Hiles on bass and vocals to bring the music and magic of Eva Cassidy to life in this award-winning production (Standard Bank Ovation Award 2022, National Arts Festival, Makhanda).
