My name is Neveah Killsnight and my Cheyenne name is Sweetgrass woman. I am an enrolled member of the Northern Cheyenne tribe and currently live in Billings, MT. I recently graduated from Billings Senior High School. I am planning on attending the University of Montana this fall where I will major in music performance. Outside of music, I enjoy hiking, making jewelry, dancing fancy shawl and spending time with my family.
I have been playing the viola for 7 years and I love playing all types of music. I have been playing with the Billings Symphony for 2 years as the youngest member and I’ve spoken and played in events around Montana. Playing the viola has allowed me to travel throughout the Northwest region and meet talented people. I am grateful for all of the amazing opportunities and support my community has given me. Music has the power to bring people together, and I love sharing it with others.
