Piper Leigh
In the News:
from Eva Cassidy's web site
Piper Leigh's Eva Cassidy tribute concert, "The Soul
of Eva Cassidy," was apparently a big success. Linda
Talbott, who has a website "dedicated to the
Prevention and Care of Melanoma" at
http://www.sunblitz.com, traveled three hours to
attend and writes, "What an absolutely fabulous
experience it was! The venue was Cabaret Old Town, in
a beautifully restored area of downtown, Wichita,
Kansas. Piper is exceptionally talented and the
audience reception was awesome! Her style of singing
as well as her physical appearance is much like Eva's.
During her performance one could feel the spirit of
Eva surrounding us. Piper spoke to the crowd of some
of the similarities in their lives and careers. It was
more than a touching moment. Her program of 17 songs
included At Last, Autumn Leaves, Wade in the Water,
and Fields of Gold. Piper effectively brought the
house down with Somewhere Over The Rainbow, and it is
safe to say there was not a dry eye in the house!"
Piper tells me, "A Wichita dermatologist, Dr. Chris
Moeller, contributed $2,000 to sponsor the show -
which allowed me to donate 50% of all the ticket sales
to The Skin Cancer Foundation!"
