Howard Gladstone

I’m Howard Gladstone, a Toronto-born singer/songwriter with a deep passion for crafting music and lyrics that inspire, heal, and connect. After a life-changing spinal cord injury in 2014, I found renewed strength in music, releasing albums like Hourglass and The Promise, each exploring themes of hope, resilience, and the power of healing. This September, I’m excited to share Crazy Talk, my eighth album—a heartfelt blend of folk, jazz, rock, and world music that captures the struggles and beauty of our times with wit, compassion, and wisdom.

I’m also publishing Timepieces – Selected Lyrics, a collection of my best lyrics spanning over two decades and eight albums. Whether delving into social issues, personal introspection, or lighthearted themes, my lyrics aim to resonate deeply with readers and music lovers alike. When I’m not writing songs or performing, I enjoy reflecting on life’s journey and finding inspiration in the world around me.
