Biography
Toby Dawn began singing at a young age, taking voice lessons and guitar lessons later in life. In 1999 Toby Dawn was involved with a film that was produced in Saint John, NB. Inspired by the film she took a Film Production course at the University of New Brunswick. While working on the film for the course, she decided to write a song for the project. From that point on she began writing more songs, sending one to Nashville to have recorded titled, 'It's You'.
Between 2001 and 2006 she traveled to Nashville going to songwriting seminars, recording songs, and performed for three record labels using her own material. Raising a young family she had to be self-reliant, working in many fields as a Entrepreneurial Trainer, Teacher, Employment Counsellor, Manager of Environment, and a Plant Scheduler/Receiver.
Setting her music aside she continually believed, from the beginning, that 'It's You' was a hit song. Keeping the song in the top drawer of her dresser she felt one day, 'It's You', would fulfill her dreams and capture the hearts of many. Finally she found an individual with the music talent, knowledge, and perseverance that would help her, Mark Zubek Owner of Zedd Records.

It's You by Toby Dawn
Verse 1
You're like the sunrise in the morning
A place that I'd call home
You're like a wish I've been yearning
A feeling of not being alone
Chorus
I've been given a chance to live my life with you
A man to help me see things through
I've been given someone I can hold on to
And It's You, It's You, It's You
The One
Growing up in a rural community I was absorbed by the natural world. Wildlife was abundant and I always had a pet dog as a child, one of which saved my life when I was 4, his name was Caesar, a Doberman- Pincher. While a sleep in my crib I woke up to see smoke looming above my mother's head. The next day, I was told, Caesar had awoken my parents to save our lives. My love of animals and their abilities only grew.
My connection and love of the environment was only encouraged by my Grandfather Don. As Don had Mi'kmaq ancestry, I would fish, hunt, and fiddle head with him. There were many stories of his life in Kent and Victoria County. He would often say he belonged to The Round Church, no one understood his words, then he'd wave his hand in my direction and say, 'Toby knows'.
As I grew older, my beloved Grandfather passed away, I would often pondered over the meaning of his words, 'The Round Church'. In time I realized The Round Church was 'Mother Earth'! Our oceans gave us life in the beginning, heaven resides in the oceans. Knowing that our God and our Planet provide us with our needed growth in spiritually. 'It's You' will be dedicated to the One.
ONE COMMANDMENT
As a child, of the age of 8, I was playing in the woods looking out over the pasture. Suddenly the voice of a woman spoke , ' You can do anything you want, except, hurt anyone or anything.' I received this divine message and I have lived by this One Commandment my entire life. One God, One Church, One Commandment
About Us
The One by Toby Dawn
I'm working on the introduction to my novel 'The One'. A true story of contact, communication, and preordination by these eternal beings or Angels.
The book will give you insight into these beings, which make up the One God, describing what they are capable of. They create, communicate, and interact, with who or whatever they choose. Chance is never an option, as they know the outcome.
