Leah Morise (with Mike Bourgeault) will be playing a double bill with Will Gillespie on Saturday night at the Regis for their Musical Chairs series. There is a special bonus of a “sweet draw” where you can get tickets to win a baked treat.
About Will Gillespie:
Will Gillespie has been described as a “one-of-a-kind, finger-picking, old-time crooning, genuine songwriter you absolutely MUST see perform” -(Matt Thompson, Musician) with “the soul of a modern folk jazz troubadour…songs unfurl in the unadorned, unhurried way that is the mark of a true master artist…” -(Colin Gibson, Audio Reckoning) It’s been said “his music has the ability to speak deeply to absolutely ANYBODY” – (Jeremy Brazeau, Cambrian College) Born and raised in South Porcupine, Northern Ontario, now finding a home in Hamilton, Will Gillespie has developed an elegant and eccentric sound all his own. He is a dynamic performer with a diverse catalogue of original songs, played with a charming and whimsical off-the-cuff approach, combining elements of Folk, Rock & Roll and Cabaret. “from songwriter to crooner and cabaret man to power pop genius, Will Gillespie is always evolving his artistry” – (Paul Loewenberg, Artistic Director, Northern Lights Festival Boreal)
