Koerner Hall celebrates International Women’s Day with a mosaic of Indigenous and diverse women’s voices, curated by Denise Bolduc.

Tia Wood’s powerful, soulful voice carries the spirit of her peoples’ songs that have echoed from her homelands since time immemorial, and the musical roots of her family tree run deep. Growing up in a home rich with music and culture, she began singing as soon as she could talk, inspired and nurtured by her parents, siblings, and her dual Plains Cree and Coast Salish heritage. She was nominated for her first Juno Award in 2025 for her debut EP, Pretty Red Bird. She is one of the first Indigenous female artists signed to Sony Music.

A Citizen of the Métis Nation of Ontario whose Red River roots run deep, interwoven with Anishinaabe relatives from Lac Seul and mixed settler relations, Amanda Rheaume has grown to be a chronicler of stories and people whose acts – out of necessity and opportunity alike – cascade through time and space, from the 18th century Red River Settlement to her own doorstep. In her gutsy guitar-driven style, punctuated with lively Métis fiddle, Rheaume’s heartland rock is built to last, resolute in rhythm and unswerving in purpose. She is joined by Métis fiddler Alyssa Delbaere-Sawchuk.

Shawnee Kish’s powerful soul voice is why hearing her is a one-of-a-kind experience. The Mohawk singer-songwriter from Canada was a 2022 Juno nominee for Contemporary Indigenous Artist of the Year, tied to her acclaimed self-titled debut EP. In 2023, she released her highly anticipated follow-up EP, Revolution, which landed her another two Juno nominations in Adult Alternative Album of the Year, and Contemporary Indigenous Artist of the Year. Revolution features her powerhouse vocals and introspective songwriting, as well as songwriting and production collaborations with industry luminaries, including Arkells frontman Max Kerman, Serena Ryder, Sara Quin of Tegan & Sara, and Dan Wilson (Adele, Taylor Swift).

After the concert, enjoy a beverage and more music at the Postlude Performance in the Leslie and Anna Dan Galleria.
