Stunning singer and acclaimed songwriter Martha Redbone drops an album of "fabulous old school soul". Neville Brothers meets Aretha Franklin meets Native American tribal powwow.

Bio / Background

”SKINTALK” is the spectacular new album from the acclaimed MARTHA REDBONE. Redbone’s world class vocals emote beautifully crafted songs of struggle and victory, love and war, to a heady brew of live band Native funk and sumptuous earthy soul grooves with splashes of rock, jazz and traditional Native music.

MOJO MAGAZINE “Fabulous album. This Brooklyn-based singer with Native American ancestry had fashioned a remarkable record that distils the soulful essence of acts like Rufus, Earth, Wind & Fire and Sly & the Family Stone but never sounds derivative or dated. The songs range from shimmering mid-tempo soul grooves (including the wonderfully uplifting Children of Love) to rock-tinged funk and bittersweet ballads. Martha Redbone is uniquely individual, Skintalk is supremely soulful. A gem of a record.”

PERFORMING SONGWRITER MAGAZINE “Part Neville Brothers, part Aretha Franklin, part tribal pow-wow.

↓ more ↓

Redbone follows in the footsteps of recent Grammy winners Ozomatli, proving that distinct influences can come together and make relevant and thoroughly enjoyable music.”

BLUES AND SOUL MAGAZINE “Once in a blue moon an album comes along out of nowhere that starts by giving you goose bumps and ends by knocking you completely off your feet. This is one such album. In terms of quality and soulfulness it eclipses everything else I've heard this year. It's that good. Really. Thoughtful, intelligent songs that use mythic imagery to touch on racial and socio-political issues as well as themes of love and life. A stunning album”

TIME OUT NY “In our opinion Martha Redbone deserves Alicia Keys level success. She has the deep funk to back up her soul queen image and live she brings a groove-heavy power-house of a band.”

ECHOES MAGAZINE “Album of the year…should be a million seller...a BIG artist.”

NATIVE PEOPLES MAGAZINE “The perfect combination of gloss and grit…remarkable pipes….Earth, Wind & Fire on the rez…Her talent is too large to remain a secret; she has all the chops necessary to become a major star.”

“SKINTALK” is the winner of the INDIAN SUMMER MUSIC AWARD “ALBUM of the YEAR 2005”, the INDEPENDENT MUSIC AWARDS “RnB ALBUM of the YEAR 2006” and ECHOES magazine “ALBUM of the YEAR” 2005.

Martha continues to perform all over the country and internationally. Go to www.myspace.com/martharedbonemusic for the calendar and see if there’s a concert in your neighborhood.

Memorable appearances include : the 2004 and 20005 New Orleans Jazz Festival, LEAF 2006, Indian Summer 2003 and 2006, Celebrate Brooklyn 2005, Belize Music Festival 2006, Planet Indigenous Toronto 2004, and prestigious clubs Joe’s Pub, Mass Moca, Ronnie Scots, the Jazz Café , Canal Opus, the Temple Bar from NYC to London to Paris to LA.

Redbone’s live show is described as:

Amsterdam News “Nothing less than spectacular… scintillating, mind blowing, music expanding songs …her scale defying voice reflects the best of soul/RnB past, present and future and she is supported by a superb band …clearly in a league of her own.”

News From Indian Country “. “Redbone’s performances are nonstop high-energy affairs featuring soulful Big Sky vocals and ecstatic dancing seasoned by the tightest, funkiest band imaginable. “
