Eva Gertz

• Folk
• Singer/Songwriter

Eclectic singer-songwriter and pianist Eva Gertz hails from Melrose, MA, and was raised by artsy parents. Introspective, honest lyrics and a moody Joni Mitchell-informed writing style flow expressively like the characteristic Jewish curls atop her head. As a graduate of Berklee College of Music and now a professor of arranging at the college, her arrangements alone can move you.

Don’t miss her Club Passim debut- a rare occasion to hear the full arrangements live with a band! This show celebrates her second album and the culmination of a 3-year life chapter: Worth the Drive is the title of the album, written during her 5-month solo road trip in 2021. The pandemic and a breakup and The Artist’s Way were all catalysts in her leaving New York and taking off into indefinite travel abyss to find herself and learn to be the rock she needed- also Eva’s Saturn return years. She has woven these stories and emotions into beautiful music that she self-produced and arranged. Please join us for this extra special Eva Gertz Passim debut.
