She Carries The Song

SHE CARRIES THE SONG
Three powerful Indigenous women — 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. 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. She Carries the Song brings all three artists together on stage for the full performance, joined by a shared house band. The evening flows between collaborative songs and individual spotlights, with each artist performing 3–4 solo pieces that showcase their distinct voice, story, and spirit.
