I'm David Guitard AKA DG, a Professional Recording Artist from Eastern Canada! 'ONE' was 1st released by Asylum Productions 'OHIO' May 1st 2013 & re-released by AMG in 2014 until the labels closure mid 2015! Was in transition before Signing to Evolution Inc. 'Chicago' who had organized Project Platinum Studios to remaster 'Come Back Again' from my album!
On Nov. 2017, it was decided to part ways with Evolution, release my single independently under 'DG Records' & also open my Official Merchandise Store! This was opened from 02/12/18 till 01/21/19 & Now is located on my Official Website.

Like many artists, my introduction to music & singing was at a young age being on stage at 5 years old wearing a cowboy hat & boots! With a musical family who sing & play many instruments all having a big influence! Also many great artists like Bruce Springsteen, The Eagles, Bob Dillon, CCR, Gordon Lightfoot, Metallica, Guns & Roses & also The Tragically Hip to name a few! My genre is folk/pop/rock & I finger-picked most of my music!

For the last 15 years my life included music & a great deal of healing, in 2003 I had fallen almost ten feet & landing head first on concrete while living in Western Canada! Was in a coma for 10 days & in the hospital for two months with a life changing Traumatic Head Injury! The first five years were the most difficult having start over again, things like walking, talking or even remembering my family! Most memories before I was 26 are sadly lost, I had gone to College for Electronics Engineering at RCC in Toronto, Ontario & then to University for Psychology at UNB in Fredericton, NB! I had a 3 page resume I knew by heart in detail & now after my injury those memories are still lost!

When I first came out of the coma I didn't remember anything including my own name but after a short time I asked for my guitar & my friend went to get for me in the hospital! I've dedicated my life to music throughout my recovery & my career continues to grow!

During that 1st year living by my families dairy farm in Belledune, NB, after countless hours playing, singing & teaching myself, I recorded my first indie album & then went door to door selling them! Then went to a professional studio to record a 2 song demo with a friend doing harmony! I was telling everyone from the start that I would become Signed to a label & have a big career playing the same songs over & over! 

I then started to loose my grasp on reality & having seizures because I had developed Epilepsy from the damage to my brain & had to move in my first of 2 special care homes! After many tough years I was playing in the hospital during my many stays after seizures, in the care homes, on the street, for everyone who wanted to listen even when I didn't hardly have any skill! I also had worked on my vocals almost every week singing Karaoke for years to gain fans & the thousands of hours doing this is what kept me pushing myself to heal.

My first full length album was recorded at 'Hometown Studios' after helping the co-owner at his gigs in Northern NB! I had then released it myself!
In Feb. 2012, after years of healing, my neuro-psychologist told me that my brain had healed 100%! After this, I started to promote myself online became very important! Eventually was played on 100+ internet radio stations & was recognized & Signed by the owner of Asylum Feb 1st, 2013 because of my presence! My album was released that May 1st

I've been interviewed many times, have 265,000+ friends & fans in my 70+ site social media network, 1,400 groups, my Merch Store & more! It makes all those times I remember cursing my fingers after the pain & bleeding all worthwhile, I believe that I have been Blessed! Thank you & God Bless you as well..
