Hey, I’m David Andrew Wiebe and I make things.
My website and writing are simple on purpose. I don’t want people to “miss the point for the writing around it.”
I’m an author, entrepreneur and musician.
I love to create. I love to learn. I love adventure.
I’m living the nomadic life. I currently live in Abbotsford, BC, Canada.
I founded Music Entrepreneur HQ and co-founded The Indie YYC.
I’ve been interviewed a few times.
Here is what others have said about me.
My 3 words for 2020 are Completion, Curation and Synthesize. And, here are my goals.
That’s all I wish to say about myself here, but if you want to go deeper, you can peruse my About page.
Catstar Images does my photos. Thanks!

Things I’ve Written
For those times when people say, “you’ve got to write an article about that!” Read them. Share them. Print them up and put them on your wall (others have).
Lifestyle Design in Music
I can’t speak for anyone else. But when I first became a musician, my mind immediately turned to touring. I wanted to get out there, share my music with the world, meet people, and go from town to town on a grand adventure. And I was willing to do whatever it took...
