An intimate and powerful evening of music, story, and spirit from three celebrated Indigenous voices.
Celeigh Cardinal (Cree), Mimi O’Bonsawin (Abenaki), and Lacey Hill (Oneida/Mohawk) — come together in this intimate and moving performance that weaves voice, story, and song into a shared circle of strength. Rooted in their distinct Nations and musical styles, these artists carry the songs of their ancestors, their homelands, and their own lived experience as women, culture bearers, and changemakers.
Enjoy all three artists together on stage, joined by a shared house band. The evening flows between collaborative songs and individual spotlights.
With soaring harmonies, honest storytelling, and deep reverence for tradition, She Carries the Song is both a celebration and a reclamation — a gathering of spirit, resilience, and connection.
