From my album 'ONE', it's a story that needs to be told. from a young man, who has a love for music.. in my heart throughout my recovery I had felt struggles with much negativity in the beginning which did come out in my music,, it in part could have easily been called one of my medicines that helped my brain heal! Although I of course continue to have a disability, things are nothing near the way they were! I no longer feel lost and 'Wasted Away!

Wasted Away

2. Wasted Away

This song is about the deforestation that I'd seen while working in silva-culture in western Canada, we'd fly to our work-sites and in every direction you could see it was cut! We would work with the upside of this with spraying around the newly planted trees so the underbrush would not overtake and kill the tree! Replanting is a great start but it is hard on the eyes to see! This song is what I wanted people to hear to have the thoughts come to their minds of what it is really like in our forests!

Sea of Green

This song was originally released on my first retail album ‘One’ by Asylum Productions, it was written not long after my Traumatic Head Injury because of thoughts in my own mind trying to make sense of how things were for me! ... ... DG

Twin Towers is a song I wrote after my head injury in 2003, I wrote it to express how the World Trade Center terrorist attic on 9/11 had made me feel! With it being something which affected us 'all' around the world, I wanted to put it in my own words while trying to have it so that others could relate! A time that will never be forgotten, Dedicated to all the souls and families that were lost and had to endure such a horrific tragedy.... ... DG

Twin Towers

1. Twin Towers

Early on while healing, I used to say the same thing quite often, in discussion especially without realizing and this is something I continued to do throughout my recovery! Still though, I always had a thought in my head that I really didn't like having to say something or do something twice, even though it's what I continued to do for quite some time! Hence became, Twice..

Twice

10. Twice

I had a thought in my head before I had written this song after my injury, because of such loss without remembering who I was or those around me, even in my family! I had a distinct thought of being like a 'Fish Out of Water', not being able to breath, just flapping,, this is actually why this song became what it is!

Like a Fish Out of Water

9. Like a Fish Out of Water

I had written this song not all that long after my head injury! I wanted to write a song portraying having that special someone where you felt complete just being with her! That I would be able to look at her and believe, everything will be alright and we will get through anything, 'Just You and Me'!

Just You and Me

8. Just You and Me

After my injury in 2003, one of the thoughts I had in my mind was that In our lives there will always be that special place that always draws us back,, this song was written for this!

Come Back Again

7. Come Back Again

So beautiful when we, fortunately, discover precisely that extraordinary person in our social lives whom we affectionately know is precisely that perfect match for us!

So Beautiful

5. So Beautiful

Throughout our lives, we are striving and working hard to better ourselves, through our schooling, our work and also in our daily lives in hopes to achieve something greater than ourselves!

Glorious Day

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..

David Guitard
