about

Giving Back Memories' is an album which exemplifies the uniqueness of every person with a brain tumour by giving them a voice through song.

Giving Back Memories was conceived by John Szpecht as a tribute to all those who have suffered as a result of a brain tumour. His son, Andrew, loved listening to music. He would often go out of his way to find new artists, and would introduce them to his father, John. While Andrew received treatment for a glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), John began writing lyrics using Andrew's words and experiences. After Andrew tragically passed away in 2012, John began to gather more stories and poems written by Canadian brain tumour patients and their families with the idea that the stories of those who have suffered from a brain tumour would one day be shared. He enlisted the help of Edmonton-based musician Chris Wiebe, who organized musicians to put these stories and poems to music. The result is 'Giving Back Memories' the purpose of which is to express the realities of live with a brain tumour, inspire those currently fighting, and to raise funds for brain tumour research.
