Sierra Hull’s positively stellar career started early.

She played Carnegie Hall at 12; at 13 signed with Rounder Records and later issued her debut, Secrets, and garnered the first of many nominations for Mandolin Player of the Year. She eventually made history by becoming the first female to win the prestigious title. She played the Kennedy Center at 16 and the next year became the first bluegrass musician to receive a Presidential Scholarship from Berklee College of Music. As a 20-year-old, Hull played the White House and would later be invited back for a second time.
