Martha Redbone - Extraordinary Afro-Indigenous Singer, Songwriter, Composer. United States Artist Fellow. "Tasty Gumbo" Of Kentucky Roots Music Mixed With Brooklyn!
Episode 633
Martha Redbone is an extraordinary artist - a singer, songwriter and composer. She was selected as a United States Artist Fellow. Her music has been called a “tasty gumbo” of roots music which combines the folk and mountain blues of her youth growing up in the coal country of Kentucky, together with her teenage years living in Brooklyn, NY. Her songs and storytelling share her life experience as an Afro-Indigenous woman and mother. She writes about social justice, connecting cultures and celebrating the human spirit.
In 2020 Martha received a Drama Desk Award for her work on the show “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When The Rainbow Is Enuff”, at the Public Theater. And she followed that up with the show’s 2022 Broadway revival.
My featured song is “African Nights”. DropBox link.
