The Tea: Heidi Martin

In this new online series, women musicians perform original work via live-stream on the museum’s social media channels on the first Friday of the month. Each session includes a short interview, conducted over a cup of tea, which explores the artist’s creative process. The Tea proudly welcomes local jazz singer Heidi Martin this month, and will be live streaming on NMWA’s Facebook page and at nmwa.org/livestream.

A vocal music major in jazz under the direction of Professor Calvin Jones at the University of the District of Columbia, Heidi Martin was a finalist in the London International Vocalist Competition and has written, directed, and produced music programs for D.C. Public Schools and Montgomery County Public Schools. She was contributing composer for the PBS documentary Revolution ’67 by Jerome and Marylou Bongiorno. She has released two albums: Hide (2005) and See Hear, Love… (2011).
