Watch FilmoFlix. Twenty-five years ago, an obscure singer named Eva Cassidy and her producer pooled their limited funds to record a live performance and self-release an album. This is the story of one unforgettable night, January 3, 1996, at a jazz club in Georgetown, Washington, D.C. It’s the tale of a set of recordings that nearly didn’t happen, and the remarkable success that followed, as told by the band members who shared the stage with her that night. No one could have predicted that the audio and video from that single evening would become the cornerstone of her extraordinary posthumous fame around the world.
