Bostic’s scores can be found on several award winning films including Dear White People and Middle of Nowhere. Dear White People, which premiered in the Sundance 2014 Film Festival, earned the Best Breakout Talent Award.[3] She was awarded Best Music in a Film by the African American Film Critics Association for her work on the film Middle of Nowhere,[4] from award-winning director Ava DuVernay.

Bostic recently composed the music for Michel’le biopic Dre, Suge & Michel'le. She has written music for several PBS series including Independent Lens, P.O.V. and the American Experience.

Due to her previous collaboration with award-winning playwright, August Wilson, on a number of his productions, including Gem of the Ocean and Radio Golf.[6] Bostic was asked by award-winning director Sam Pollard to compose the score for American Masters: August Wilson- The Ground on Which I Stand.[7] Bostic would go on to write The August Wilson Symphony, which the Grammy Award Winning Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra premiered in January 2018. The performance featured narration of Wilson's text by Tony Award winning actor, Phylicia Rashad,[2] and was helmed by Grammy Award winning conductor and composer, Lucas Richman.[8]

In addition to August Wilson’s works, Bostic has composed music for several other plays, including the Mark Taper production of Joe Turner’s Come and Gone directed by Phylicia Rashad[9] and Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo with Robin Williams written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Rajiv Joseph.

The Drama Desk nominated her Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo score for “Outstanding Music in a Play”.[10] The production won the Sound Design category. Bostic has been nominated for several additional awards including the Ovation Award and NAACP Theatre Award.[11]

Bostic toured extensively in festivals and venues including The Copenhagen Jazz Festival, Ronnie Scott’s, Birdland, Tokyo and Osaka Blue Note, and The Pori Jazz Festival.[12] She has also recorded and performed with many renowned artists including Nas, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and David Byrne.[13]
