Inspired by the soulful intimacy of Eva Cassidy and shaped by folk, gospel, sacred, and contemporary traditions, Songs for the Soul blends reflective storytelling, atmospheric collaboration with pianist Mina Yu, and moments of stillness and improvisation to create a deeply moving musical experience.
