Another jazz singer named Cass... - jazzboCR - 17-04-2015
Seriously doubt Cassandra Wilson refers to herself that way but Cassandre McKinley might. Mellow-sounding, not adventurous, solid results in delivering a lyric. Her Site: http://www.cassandremckinley.com/ Slim Discog; nothing since '06 (but it was killer): http://www.allmusic.com/artist/cassandre-mckinley-mn0000160519/discography
Some tunes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h177Z07X4Ws

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GglZiwznmXc << Just lovely--empathic surroundings, those guitar tones on the keys especially.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xhq5my0ITAA <<Classic singer-with-Big-Band sound--I just love it. << Great sax solo.
