NobleSissle was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, on July 10, 1889.
The Sissles moved to Cleveland when Noble was 17, and in 1908, before graduating from high school, he joined a male quartet for a four-week run of the Midwest vaudeville circuit.
After Europe's death, Sissle and Blake were encouraged by his manager and the backers of the band to enter the white vaudeville circuit.
