Vocalist and composer, Heidi Martin applies a singer-songwriter perspective, that folk influence from the 60’s, to a whole different genre of music...An original voice whose artistry is both authentic and defiant to genre, a provocative lyricist with a deep sense of social consciousness.
Martin received the 2024 Berger-Carter Berger Fellowship from Rutgers Dana Library Jazz Studies Dept., for her research on the Abbey Lincoln Estate. “Abbey’s philosophy has provided a path for me to balance my anxiety, and grief while maintaining; personal truth-seeking within this world of struggle,” said Martin.
Born in Washington D.C., she has shared the stage as a featured vocalist with Nicholas Payton, Tim Warfield, and George Burton, and as a guest artist on recordings with Russell Gunn, and Dana Muray. Four of Martin’s compositions off her first album “HIDE” - were chosen as a soundtrack to REVOLUTION ’67, a documentary about the 1967 Newark rebellion by Emmy-nominated filmmakers Jerome and Marylou Bongiorno.
