Hi! My name is David O'Hearn and I am a composer, musician, actor and music producer
(in case you haven't guessed, I am the D in playD).
I play guitar, keyboards, bass and do vocal work (both musical and voice-overs). With over 30 years of experience in a variety of styles, I can also lend my experience to music production and arranging, as well as a multi-instrumentalist.
I have been performing in local musical and dramatic theatre since 2005, having appeared in over 85 productions both onstage as an actor and on guitar in the orchestra (sometimes both!)
I also run a project studio in Mississauga, Ontario (west of Toronto). playD Studio is used to provide music and/or music production for a variety of projects, including music for film, tv and radio. My project studio is ideal for singer/songwriter projects as well. I have produced demos for a few local artists and look forward to future collaborations.
I perform over 150 dates per calendar year in various forms – a solo act; part of a duo and part of the following bands:
- Time Trip (4-piece Top 40 and Rock band)
- Age of Reason (4-piece vocal group)
- Blackboard Blues Band (10-piece R&B, Funk and Soul)
- Andy Butler & The Diplomats (4-piece original Power Pop)
I have scored a number of independent short films and one feature, providing music to picture.

I welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service in the industry.
