A fine interpreter of lyrics, Eden Atwood started off her jazz career with a series of excellent recordings for Concord. Raised in Montana, Atwood studied drama and musical theater at college but became interested in jazz, and at 19 she began singing locally. Although she worked as a model and an actress, Atwood has focused her attentions on singing; she made her debut in New York in 1992 and sings in a style somewhere between jazz and cabaret. She produced a high volume of material through the first half of the 90's, but stopped delivering regular material until she signed with Groove Note in the early 2000s. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
