Press / Testimonials
Critical praise highlights Eidson’s emotional clarity,
phrasing, and fresh approach to the American Songbook.
“It’s hard to find a fresh take on American Songbook standards, but Ms. Eidson has devised an approach that reveals new pleasures in those old songs. She sings with a real reverence for the material without being constrained by the countless interpretations that have come before.”
—Lynn Darroch, KMHD 89.1 FM
“Billie is a delight to listen to. Her voice blends the sultriness of Sarah Vaughan with the sweet lyricism of Rosemary Clooney.”
— Phil Baker, bassist & composer, Pink Martini
Additional Press
“Eidson approaches each song with respect for the lyrics and a jazz sensitivity—a refreshing and wonderfully listenable outing. On selections including ‘Lucky to Be Me,’ ‘Pretty Eyes,’ and ‘Remind Me,’ she brings a warm, expressive vocal presence.”
