Download of the Week: Sierra Noble

posted in: Features • Pop

Multi-instrumentalist Sierra Noble has performed for audiences as far out as outer space and as wide as the entire world. The 20-year-old Canadian repeatedly amazes crowds with her fiddle and guitar-playing talents. As part of this week’s Needle in the Haystack feature, you will hear about Noble’s experience being selected as 1 of 6 “Hero Fiddlers” in the opening ceremonies for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, as well as her many other accomplishments.

With her music videos “Possibility” and “Try Anything” placing in the Top 20 on CMT Canada and a prime gig opening  for Bon Jovi on their tour stop in Winnipeg (thanks to the recent “Wanted: A SuperBAND Tonight” competition on OurStage), Noble’s résumé is filling out quite nicely. Her album, Possiblities, was selected by Astronaut Julie Payette as 1 of 20 albums she brought aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavor in July 2009. If that’s not a good enough reason to download her free track “Possibility” I don’t know what is!
