Indigenous soul. That’s how Six Nations-born-and-bred Lacey Hill describes her emotion-filled original songs, which grow out of a lifelong love for music-making.
Part of the Oneida/Mohawk Wolf Clan, the singer-songwriter paid her dues performing cover songs and singing backup for local Six Nations bands. Now, she’s one of the few musicians from her community consistently dropping albums.
Previous releases include multiple volumes of a decade-long series of albums called 528. Entry three, The Moon (528 III), was released in 2022.
Between recording sessions, Hill makes a point of touring. She continues to expand her fanbase not only across Canada but internationally, with shows in Australia, Scotland, and the U.S.
Hill is an alumna of Banff Centre’s Indigenous Arts and Music programs.
