David Hart grew up in Sheshatshiu, an Innu community in Labrador. He shares his passions for music and drumming because of his late grandfather. David is also a motivational speaker, helping others with his traditional teachings. Starting out, David had no idea of living the music road life was the last thing on his minds. After he did all the local gigs and backing up other bands, he realized the only way for him to evolve as a musician was moving out of his community and try to make an album of his own. Almost ten years ago, he moved to Quebec City and is now releasing his second album. Nikanute is David Hart’s second album released on February 25, 2022, following his 2010 debut David Hart. The 1st album of David Hart contained half of cover songs of John Forgety and half of Innu Aimun songs, including 4 writing by him. His first album allowed him to travel to many First Nations and Inuit communities in Labrador, Quebec, Nunavut and other provinces. David brings a unique musical style and over the years he grown comfortable jumping at a bigger challenge, which is to be a songwriter.
