MARTHA REDBONE
HOME OF THE BRAVE NOMINATED FOR FOUR 2002 NATIVE AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS: Winner, Debut Artist of the Year Award. Singer/songwriter Martha Redbone has been described by Billboard Magazine's Larry Flick as " a true original; the kind of artist who sets trends, as opposed to following them". She grew up in New York and Kentucky. An unlikely combination that you can hear in her flow: the staccato melodies of the city, mixed with the easy, wide-open praise song of a country choir. Martha Redbone was mentored by legendary musician, Walter 'Junie' Morrison, who was an original member of the Ohio Players and later, Parliament Funkadelic. Now a kid sister to the funk, she even sang backup vocals on the Mothership reunion album with George Clinton. Home of the Brave, that Billboard has called "stunning", is the perfect marriage of song, music and beats to support Martha's incredible voice - soaring, vulnerable, spirited.
