Tia Wood is a Cree and Salish pop singer-songwriter from Canada,[2] who received a Juno Award nomination for Contemporary Indigenous Artist of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2025 for her EP Pretty Red Bird.[3]

The daughter of Earl Wood of the Indigenous round dance group Northern Cree and the younger sister of singer Fawn Wood, she grew up in the Saddle Lake Cree Nation.[4] Tia first launched into the public sphere and built a fan base on TikTok with short videos of her Indigenizing sounds. She was then signed to Sony Music Canada, being the first Indigenous woman to ever be signed to this label.[1]

Pretty Red Bird, her debut EP, was released in September 2024 on Sony Music.[5]

She has also been an activist with the REDress Project, which seeks to publicize the issue of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women through art, dance and music.[6]

In May 2026, Wood performed her song "Sage My Soul" as the musical background to the In Memoriam segment at the 14th Canadian Screen Awards.[7]
