Toronto jazz & pop songstress Eliza Pope is no stranger to the music scene. Her debut album, Call Me a Fool, received acclaim from critics who called the album “vital and real music, of the kind that supposedly isn’t made anymore.” Pope is known for bringing a refreshing diversity of material in her performances – “nailing a hearty blues song with an empowering attitude, doing light and breezy and warm and sentimental, and shining equally on a tender and mellow ballad”. Mark Rheaume of CBC Radio credited Pope with “giving us hope for the future in this era of auto-tuned automatons and their assembly-line made product.” With real music in mind, Pope continues to bring her jazz roots to colour her inventive and memorable originals, as she holds her own in the pool of incredible talent in Toronto, Ontario.
