Vimy Ridge

Accomplished teenage fiddler Sierra Noble traveled to France to perform at the 90th Anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge. Noble, who specializes in traditional Metis fiddle, performed the Metis Prayer/Warriors Lament at the monument as a part of the historic ceremony on April 9. Along with her performance at the ceremony, Noble was also scheduled to perform for the Prime Minister and other dignitaries at an Easter dinner while she was overseas. Noble won an Aboriginal Peoples Choice Music Award in November for Best Aboriginal Music by Non Aboriginal Artist for her track �Orange Blossom Special� off her debut CD, Spirit of the Strings.
