Louise Vautour (born in Bathurst, New Brunswick)[1] is a Canadian musician.
Vautour took music and dance lessons from an early age but only began learning the fiddle at age 13.[1] In 2001, she moved to Dublin, Ireland to study music. She moved back to Bathurst a year later and started a fiddle school. In 2004, she joined the band Ode à l'Acadie.[1] In 2012, she participated in the Festival Interceltique de Lorient as the first artist to inaugurate the Pavilion of Acadia.[2] She was part of the festival twice before in 2008 and 2011.[2] As of January 2016 she was living in Ottawa, Ontario.[3]
