  • Bio

    Tom Connors was born February 9th 1936 in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. Tom was taken away from his mother at a young age by the Childrens Aid and was adopted by the Aylward family in Skinners Pond, Prince Edward Island where he lived until the age of 15 when he started his hitchhiking journey across Canada.....Tom visited all four corners of Canada singing about what he has seen and singing about what makes Canada so unique compared to the rest of the world. Tom got himslef noticed when he was in the northern Ontario town of Timmins and was short a nickel for a beer at the Maple Leaf Hotel, so the bartender agreed to give Tom a beer if he would play a few songs. Those few songs turned into thirteen month contract to play at the Maple Leaf Hotel, a weekly spot on the CKGB radio station in Timmins, eight 45-RPM recordings, and the beginning of Stomping Tom Connors.
