"Evita is a real honest-to-goodness singer. She has natural musicianship - extraordinary pitch, man - and she's genuine as the day is long."
- Rebecca Parris
"Evita is a find. Her voice is a breeze to listen to; warm, sweet, relaxed, gently swinging and always connected to the words. She sings with an optimistic lilt but can get darker when the song calls for it. What you won't hear are tricks, frills or anything remotely affected."
- James Gavin
"Just when you think classic jazz singers are gone, there is Evita Cobo with her debut CD, Invitation . Her tone is like velvet. Her songs are unusual, rarely heard, while others are deeply familiar; all with her refreshing, mature examination of love, life and change. She is in the company of great musicians who push her and hold her while she tells her musical story with so much heart and talent. Keep believing in jazz singers and listen carefully to Evita."
- Rhiannon
