Well I've recently had setbacks for sure through the winter season although I'm very proud to say that I've just yesterday gotten an email that I've won the 2024 Canadian Prestige Award for Musician of the Year! With it being the third year in a row winning an award, the second as musician of the year I'm proud! It's not a Grammy but perhaps next year for that as I've got a big announcement coming soon! Thank you to the Canadian Prestige Awards and to everyone for their support. I'm very honored.. .. David Guitard (DG) / DG Records
