Indigenous Canadian TikTok star and musician, Tia Wood, is readying her debut album.
The 24-year-old opened up to ET Canada for our upcoming special in honour of National Truth and Reconciliation Day on September 30 about the creative process, which has so far been two and a half years in the making, since Wood left the Reserve.
Wood — who is TikTok famous with a following of 2.3 million — has the social media platform to thank for playing a big role in sharing her Indigenous culture and educating others online. The singer said “bringing awareness and the beautiful opportunities” that have emerged from creating content have been the best parts about sharing her truth on TikTok.
“I’ve been invited to tables and to spaces that I’ve never been invited to before, and that’s been really, really special,” she told ET Canada’s Morgan Hoffman.
It was “early on” when Wood realized she was making a difference for others.
“I started TikTok as just kind of like a fun little thing. I had no intentions of becoming an influencer or a spokesperson for Indigenous people,” she admitted, “but it was really early on when I started realizing that there was a lack of awareness, and that’s when I became more meaningful in the stuff I was posting.”

As for the feedback she’s received, “it’s been really positive,” Wood said.
“Surprisingly, like with the whole music thing, I didn’t really have intentions to start music either just because my family did it already. But when I was getting such positive feedback on the sounds I was creating, it was pretty insane,” she said.
“So you’re working on your first album?” Hoffman asked.
“Yeah. Yeah,” Wood confirmed.
