Martha Bush
Professional harp performer and recording artist.

Martha Bush, born and raised in St. Paul, Minnesota, began private harp lessons at age 11. She later performed with the nationally acclaimed St. Olaf College Orchestra, and with theater productions while a student there.

Though trained in classical music, Martha’s interest in pop standards and classic jazz led her to the Pop & Jazz Harp Seminar in Santa Barbara California, to learn innovative fingering, improvisation, showmanship, and rhythm techniques from such star harp performers as John Escosa, Stella Castellucci, and the late DeWayne Fulton. A highlight of Martha’s education was meeting the famous jazz band leader and composer, Stan Kenton. In 1983 she embarked on her professional career performing for a variety of venues, including restaurants, public and private events, and many wedding celebrations. Her well-received debut CD, “Have Harp Will Travel” is a great example of pure acoustic harp playing in a collection of well-known tunes, with a few of Martha’s personal favorites added.
