Leah Morise and Will Gillespie

Join Will Gillespie and Leah Morise (with Mike Bourgeault) for a Saturday matinee of fun at the Richmond Tavern in London, Ontario.

Will Gillespie is a unique voice, a dynamic performer with a diverse catalogue of original songs, exploring Folk, Rock & Roll, Cabaret and other styles. He is a one-man show, accompanying himself on guitar and harmonica but his main instrument is the heartstrings. It’s a surprisingly full sound for such minimal instrumentation. Born and raised in South Porcupine, Northern Ontario, Will now calls Hamilton home. He brings this unique perspective to every performance, taking listeners with him from the small town to the big city, from the barn to the ballroom. Telling true stories beautifully through his lyrics, melody, voice, guitar and harmonica.
