Iconoclast singer-songwriter Martha Redbone brings forth an epic, unexpected and personal American journey in Bone Hill Feb. 11-14, a new musical theater work featuring original music by Redbone and Aaron Whitby, and co-written and directed by Roberta Uno. Bone Hill is presented as part of the New York Voices Artist Commissioning Series.


In Bone Hill, Martha Redbone explores her Appalachian mining family's heritage and history in an epic piece that spans generations and a breadth of music genres. Redbone calls on her Native American and African American roots to tell this unexpected family story that unveils a shadowy part of American history through breathtaking original music, humor and layers of dramatic revelation.

The current class of New York Voices is actor and cabaret performer Daniel Breaker with director Kate Whoriskey, indie-folk singer-songwriter Dawn Landes with writer & director Daniel Goldstein, and soulful singer-songwriter Martha Redbone with director Roberta Uno.
