The Dave Hewens Project
Also known as The Project.
The Dave Hewens Project is the artist brand of Ottawa songwriter Dave Hewens — the flagship voice of the Neepawa Music catalog. Working across country, country folk, rock, contemporary jazz, dance, cabaret swing, and narrative concept music, The Project releases new music on a steady rhythm: two songs a week, every week, each one written to be remembered.
The songs are built the old way — verses that carry a story, choruses that land, and melodies made to be sung — and released the new way, distributed worldwide to every major streaming platform.
