ABBEY! Heidi Martin’s Tribute to Jazz Diva Abbey Lincoln

By Brooke Chilvers

It only takes a quick spin on YouTube to reconnect with jazz vocalist, composer and social activist Abbey Lincoln (1930- 2010). She also starred across from Sidney Poitier in the 1968 movie, For Love of Ivy, receiving a Golden Globe for her performance.

Lincoln found inspiration in Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington and Sarah Vaughan, affi rming, “I came from them all.” She traced her civil rights militancy to Nina Simone.

Lincoln’s youthful clarity of voice in Billy Holiday’s “When a Woman Loves a Man” has become silky and soulful by “Bird Alone” thirty years later, her majestic chops and soulsearching lyrics enriched by her life experiences. Lincoln’s distinct phrasing and timbre resonate with mellow wisdom in her heartbreaking rendition of Avec Le Temps. YouTube also shows a gorgeous woman only getting more beautiful over time.

Pioneering Washington D.C. singer-songwriter Heidi Martin pays tribute to the timeless Lincoln in her original jazz concert experience named ABBEY! Based on fi ve years of primary resource research into Lincoln’s poems and musical scores — and a three-hour phone call in the middle of the night that bonded the two performers of different generations and different races – Martin takes us on a voyage with her sensitive

and respectful channeling of Lincoln that simultaneously affi rms her own talent.

In ABBEY! Martin, who also composes contemporary folk and grooved-based soul music, returns to her classic jazz repertoire, her own voice seasoned by a 30-year career that includes three albums and performances in D.C. and New York’s jazz venues.

Both composers’ lyrics and voices are stirring and fearless. “I don’t intend to die with my mouth closed,” said Lincoln. And neither does Martin. The concert: ABBEY!
