Who is Sylvia? What is she?

“Part cabaret confessional, part homage to the Great American Songbook, [Sylvia] McNair’s album chronicles her move from the classical world into newfound artistic freedom, with a dose of life’s intensity along the way. Pieces by Gershwin and Bernstein, Previn and Porter (and probably one of the most unexpected covers of ‘The Devil Went Down to Georgia’) paint a wry portrait of one woman’s life in music.” [Rock Paper Scissors]
