Wilson, Tom

“Acid folk” was born in an old garage off Clinton Avenue in Toronto, concocted by Tom Wilson from Blackie & the Rodeo Kings, a few Cowboy Junkies, and some Skydiggers. Allowing bass, hypnotic rhythms and a lot of groove into their songwriting circle, the artist collective Lee Harvey Osmond created a sound that would creep out of the Northern woods and across the Great Lakes into the South, the same way The Band did forty years before them. Guest host Peter North welcomed Tom Wilson and members of Lee Harvey Osmond to How I Hear It, November 25, 2010.
