London's Pretty Cool


Feb 25, 2022

Richard Gracious is a local musician that you have likely seen on stage, singing and/or playing guitar with bands like Bad Teeth, Mountain of Wolves, Wolf Saga, Charlie Weber and much more. 

Richard’s life has always been surrounded by music, growing up in a musical family and attending local arts schools Lester B. Pearson and Central Secondary School -  which led him to the MIA program at Fanshawe College. 

When he’s not writing and playing his own music, he’s recording local talent with his record label Forest City Records. 

In this episode we speak with Richard all about how he got started in music, if arts school helps, what it’s like playing in multiple bands, his label Forest City Records, turning his songs into a musical with the Re:Opening festival at the Grand Theatre with the show One Year, playing in a pit band, what to expect from him in 2022 and so much more!
