Dedicated to Eva Cassidy who with her Angelic Voice died in 1996 at the age of 33 yrs of Metastatic Melanoma. Only after her death on Nov. 2 was she discovered by the community at large.God must have   more...needed her up there to sing in the Angelic Choir. For me she sings like an Angel and this rendition of "Over the Rainbow" is absolutely beautiful! Her voice for me will sing on.Fantasy Art courtesy of www.photobucket.com  less

Video of a walk I took along a beach. MUSIC: Chariots Of Fire, and You Take My Breath Away, By Eva Cassidy

Eva Cassidy truly was a Goddess, simply mesmerizing. A spark so rarely seen in today’s music with a passion that’s almost tangible.

Wings from Antigone Rising's fall tour, 2006

Planet Sundancer contacted me and asked that a vistory be produced for Songbird by either Christie McVie of Fleetwood Mac or Eva Cassidy. After a test sound track, we settled on Eva Cassidy's version.

This is the final that includes Planet Sundancers edits and direction. This was a pleasure to co-produce and makes video host sites like this a joy to be part a part of. This is no longer a hobby, it is an ogoing 24/7 passion.

Thank you, Planet Sundancer!  less

Eva Cassidy-vocals & Acoustic Guitar.In January 1996 Cassidy made 'Live at Blues Alley', a showcase of her eclecticism. When she was on-stage with her guitar, too nervous to look her audience in the   more...eye, she drew them into every corner of her vast musical world. From that comes a pair of elegiac ballads. "Autumn Leaves" and "Fields of Gold"  less

Antigone Rising's internet documentary, "For The Record" follows the band from recording their new studio album, "Tales From Wonderland" through it's subsequent release. Episode 10,   more...Happy Can, features the band on tour in Atlanta, GA on June 23, 2007.  less

watch this nice singer

here ya go...lol. enjoy. thanks for watching.

Here is another of my all time favorite romantic songs . . . Eva Cassidy's version of "Fields of Gold". The world lost this beautiful singer when she died WAYYY before her time at the age of   more...33 from cancer in 1996. (It's why I truly believe that you have to focus on each day of your life . . . you never know when your "personal time clock" will stop ticking.) The other sad thing is that Eva, during her life, was almost totally unknown outside her home area of Washington D.C. and became famous only after her death. The British newspaper "The Guardian" later went on to describe her as "one of the greatest voices of her generation." Her posthumously released recordings have since sold in excess of four million copies, and in early 2001 the compilation album Songbird reached #1 on the UK album charts. It's so sad she never lived to see the recognition she deserved . . . I hope you enjoy her music as much as I do!

Here are the links to a wonderful three part series about Eva and her music that was on the American TV show "Nightline"; the series reconfirms the incredible impact her music had, and STILL has on the world:

The photos for this video are ones I took in England on various trips and from when I used to live over there. The primary castle shown in the video is Arundel Castle, in Arundel, West Sussex, England . . . I love wandering around old castles in Europe and visualizing the dozens of generations of people who have lived & died in them . . . it's amazing to look at stone steps in the castles that have been worn down simply from the thousands of people who have used them over the centures . . . it's also always eerie to visualize the battles that were fought at the castles and contrast those battles with the peaceful tranquility around these castles today . . . The Arundel castle was "remodeled" and expanded around 1300AD, and the initial castle built around 1100AD . . . it's always interesting to me how castles were often times remodeled WELL before the United States was even in EXISTENCE! :)

For more info on Arundel Castle (one of my favorite castles for wandering around :) ) please check out:

In addition to the castle (which also has a restaurant), the grounds include a beautiful old chapel, and gardens, and the town of Arundel is the quintessential old English town, so yeah, I highly recommend this beautiful place if you ever get to this part of England :)

and for castle history buffs, this website has lots of detailed info on the Arundel Castle:

I was so saddened to hear of the death of Eva Cassidy which was approx 12 years ago that I was inspired to write a song for her. I saw so much of myself in her and it was such a shame that fame came her   more...way only after she had died. Bless you Eva where ever you are!!! xxx  less

Here's another of Eva's beautiful songs, serving as the audio track for a short video about a typical beautiful Summer's Day in La Jolla, San Diego, California.

leona singing over the rainbow

This is a still image video created for Somewhere Over The Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz. No one has ever sung this song like Eva Cassidy who died of skin cancer at the age of 33 before she could enjoy   more...the world acceptance of her music and love for her voice.  less

This is me singing a song that was beautifully arranged by Eva Cassidy.
My voice was a little tired cause it was almost midnight when i recorded this.
Hope i did it justice! Enjoy!
