Soul goddess Martha High explores her musical heritage and continues her journey to distill great funky moments with the SoulCookers! Martha High sang on stage with James Brown for 30 years and was his longest serving vocalist. She continues to tour the world regularly as the lead singer of Maceo Parker’s band, another longtime sidekick of the godfather of soul. They were together, along with James Brown at their famous Boston Garden concert in April 1968 on the night after Martin Luther King’s assassination, when Brown prevented further riots with her sheer stage presence and positive message. High remains a formidable musical force, critically acclaimed for her albums and by her audiences at every performance.
