Tom Tikka signed his first recording contract on his 21st birthday with Olarin Musiikki, a small indie label in Espoo (Finland) and recorded a three-song EP for them under the alias of Tom Spark. Unfortunately, the EP disappeared as quickly as it was released.
Disappointed, Tom withdrew from music for a few years but began writing songs again once his brother Lappe Holopainen suggested that they form a songwriting team. Lappe had founded a group he was convinced would go far and he needed tunes for his new outfit. This group was Carmen Gray.
Carmen Gray was signed to Sony/BMG in 2005 and went on to record three albums and one EP. The group's entire catalog (including such radio hits as “Lost In My Mind Again”, “Gates Of Loneliness” & “Life Can Be Beautiful”) was penned by Tom Tikka & Lappe Holopainen.
After Carmen Gray disbanded in 2013, Tikka formed The Impersonators with poet Antti Autio. In 2017, The Impersonators signed with the German FBP and released the well-received "Life Of Grant".
In 2020, Tom finally began his solo career and has since released three critically-acclaimed albums on One Media UK. Tikka has been featured on Huffington's Thrive Global, Authority Magazine, Melody Maker Magazine, Ballroom Blitz, The Hollywood Digest, VENTS Magazine and many others. He is also a two-time ISSA Award winner as well as a Josie Music Awards and Hollywood Music in Media Awards nominee.
