Voice
Evans is noted for her "urban-edged honeyed soprano." Her vocal range extends from the low note of C#3 to high soprano B5. Washington Post writer Craig Seymour called her "angelic yet hearty soprano" as showcasing emotion that is defined by Evans' personal experiences of tragedy, love, pain and heartbreak. Her official website also references "her soaring soprano" vocals when speaking about her sophomore album.

Famous quotes containing the word voice:
“Lap me in soft Lydian airs,
Married to immortal verse,
Such as the meeting soul may pierce
In notes with many a winding bout
Of linked sweetness long drawn out,
With wanton heed and giddy cunning,
The melting voice through mazes running,
Untwisting all the chains that tie
The hidden soul of harmony;”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... “Equality for equals, inequality for unequals”Mthat would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, “Never make equal what is unequal.””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at
rest.
There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the
oppressor.”
—Bible: Hebrew Job (l. III, 17–18)
