Natalie MacMaster will be releasing her first solo album entitled Sketches on November 1, 2019, her first in eight years.

With over 300,000 albums sold, Canada's most endeared and revered fiddler has received countless nominations and award wins--including but not limited to a Grammy Award win and nomination, a Juno Award win and 7 nominations, 19 East Coast Music Awards and 5 Canadian Country Music Association's Fiddler of The Year nods- as well as 3 honorary doctorates, an induction into the Casino Nova Scotia Hall of fame and a member of the order of Canada.

For her new album, she drew on a different set of numbers for inspiration. At 47 year old and 37 years fiddling, 16 years of marriage, 13 years of parenting her seven children and husband and fellow fiddler Donnell Leahy.She says it'll be a moment of joyous appreciation inspired by years of parenting, marriage, friendships, music and life.

Her new album, Sketches is a return to a solo sound, and the result is a fiery, must-hear collection of traditional tunes and meledys mixed with new compositions.

Natalie's tour began on October 4/19 in Halifax and ends on December 20 in Sante Fe, NM, USA.

Canadian Tour dates are posted to this wesite.
