Sierra Hull and Cory Walker in Kawaguchi City, JapanAs we mentioned last month, 16 year old mandolin prodigy Sierra Hull is in the middle of a whirlwind tour of Japan.

She has just completed the first leg, performing with a group of young bluegrass all-starts, and is now touring with her band, Highway 111, in support of her debut release, Secrets.

Sierra sent along a few photos from the trip so far…

A video from the trip has also been promised, via Highway 111 banjo picker and budding filmmaker, Cory Walker. Having seen his work, we can be sure that his Japan trip video will be a hoot.
