Inheriting the powerful vocal range of her gospel-singing African American father and the resilient spirit of her mother’s Cherokee/Shawnee/Choctaw culture\, Redbone broadens the boundaries of American Roots music. With songs and storytelling that share her life experience as a Native and Black woman and mother in the new millennium\, Redbone gives voice to issues of social justice\, bridging traditions from past to present\, connecting cultures\, and celebrating the human spirit. \nHer album The Garden of Love- Songs of William Blake\, produced by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band founder/ Grammy Winner John McEuen is an unexpected twist — “a brilliant collision of cultures” (The New Yorker) — Redbone’s magnificent voice\, Blake’s immortal words\, and a masterful cornucopia of roots music (blues\, gospel\, bluegrass\, soul and traditional Southeastern Woodlands). Featured on All Things Considered the album released on her own imprint Blackfeet Productions rose to the Top Ten on Amazon Folk Charts for many weeks and has become the bedrock of her live shows bringing audiences to their feet with her fiery old time mountain gospel singing and foot-stomping energy. \n \nRedbone is Composer for the Public Theater’s 2019 production of “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow is Enuff”\, a revival/reimagining of the 1976 classic choreopoem by the late Ntozake Shange. Rave reviews with notable mentions for Redbone’s original compositions and score “supreme music… brilliant” (NY Daily News). The Redbone and Whitby’s newest work is BONE HILL\, an interdisciplinary musical theater work inspired by the lives of Redbone’s family in the hills of coal-mining Appalachia. Bone Hill is a recipient of the NEFA National Theater Project Creation and Touring Grant and National Performance Network Creation Fund. \n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://martharedbone.com/\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Upcoming Performances Include:\n \n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \ngrandperformances.org/events\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n
