Bertha Idaho (born c. 1895; date of death unknown)[1] was an American classic female blues singer.[2] She recorded four songs in 1928 and 1929. Little is known of her life outside music.
Idaho's work might have remained obscure but for two factors: she was mentioned by John Fahey in the liner notes for his influential debut album, Blind Joe Death, and her recordings were reissued by Rosetta Reitz.
