Tom Wilson
Tom Wilson (Tehohåhake) is a Canadian music legend, famed storyteller, and visual artist. Wilson’s memoir, Beautiful Scars published by Penguin/Random House has become a national bestseller. The memoir has been adapted into a TVO Original documentary. Exposing incredible truths about Wilson’s biological family and Indigenous heritage, the documentary delves into the singer-songwriter’s lifetime quest to find and ultimately uncover his true identity as a Mohawk man.
Tom's extensive career and tireless efforts as a musician has bestowed upon him numerous nominations and awards. These include his own bands Lee Harvey Osmond, Junkhouse, and Canadian treasure, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings as well numerous collaborations with other artists of note.
In 2020, Tom established the Bunny Wilson Indigenous Scholarship fund at McMaster University, supporting year one indigenous students from Ontario secondary schools completing an undergraduate program in any faculty.
Wilson was appointed as a Companion of the Order of Canada in June 2023, with this citation: For his multifaceted contributions to the arts in Canada, notably as an iconic musician, as well as for his advocacy of Indigenous communities in Canada.
