Cassandra Wilson has a magical alto voice, which draws audiences susceptible to femme fatale vocalists; she has a captivating personality, and her artistry is no less astounding. Her latest CD was released in 2008, on the prestigious Blue Note label. Entitled Loverly, it was recently awarded a Grammy prize.
