    Artist History
    Deeply rooted in his Scottish lowlands heritage, David Leask has spent his past eight years in Canada building a spiritual and artistic bridge between the powerful influences of his birthplace and the fresh possibilities of his new home. With uncanny poignancy, his songwriting truly resonates in the hearts, minds and souls of his loyal following.On his latest Juno nominated CD, "Ancestors Eyes", Leask looks to the many and varied people in his own life who've shaped who and where he is today. Indeed, the title track was inspired by the revelation that one of his own ancestors made the uncharted journey from Scotland to Canada some 600 years before him. "I took a good look at life through my ancestors' eyes. I'm learning from the wayward and the wise". Leask's experiences and insights are interwoven throughout his words and melodies in a penetrating mix of adult pop and sharp-edged folk.
