Cassandre McKinley

Jazz Vocalist Cassandre McKinley will release her debut album under the MAXJAZZ label "TIL TOMORROW - Remembering Marvin Gaye" on August 29th, 2006. In this body of work, McKinley delivers her interpretation of selected music Gaye wrote, co-wrote and performed throughout his career. From inception to execution, McKinley's sensitivity to Gaye's message and her rich, warm sound combine to pull this project far, far away from the ordinary - creating a genre that just fits between Jazz, Smooth Jazz and R & B - soulful and creative. From her 2004 self-released album “BARING THE SOUL" - this new album exhibits Cassandre's continuing exploration of Nu-Jazz and Soul focusing on additional material by this great soul icon.

Cassandre McKinley: Stay the Night

Read "Stay the Night" reviewed by Mathew Bahl


Stay the Night is the young, Boston-based vocalist Cassandre McKinley’s second CD. Although far from perfect, there is enough talent and solid judgment on display to suggest that it will not be her last. Ms. McKinley’s chief asset is a gorgeous voice that immediately grabs the listener’s attention. Hers is a bright, nicely textured, well pitched ...
