Will Moor

Will Moor is the creative collaboration of Shawn William Clarke & David Gluck, born of their mutual love of ambient music and marks their first creative collaboration as co-writers and creators. Their first record under the moniker Will Moor was recorded at in Gravenhurst Ontario (the weekend that David Bowie died), and created from scratch in the studio using an array of mostly acoustic instruments.

“We talked a lot about what we were listening to, and how we'd want to approach making this sort of music ourselves. I'd been listening to a lot of Ambient / New Age music, but was also drawn to the more organic sounds of Penguin Cafe Orchestra & Nils Frahm. We decided to spend a lot of time discussing it then go in and create the music on site. I thought it worked very well. I think we were able to draw from each others strengths”

David Gluck emerged from the New York music scene with the release of his first solo album “I Don't Know How To Live Here When You're Mine” (2003). In 2006 he embarked on a collaborative project of setting traditional hindu chants in modern settings. “Sounds Of She” was warmly received in both the yoga and New Age music scenes and marked David's first experience working with Toronto-based muscians. In 2011, David moved to Toronto where he met Shawn William Clarke. The two began working together shortly there after with David playing bass in Shawn's band and on his records.

Shawn William Clarke is a Canadian indie-folk songwriter, twice nominated as Songwriter of the Year in NOW magazine and recent winner of the Songs From The Heart Songwriting award, presented by Folk Music Ontario. His last solo album release, TOPAZ, was inspired by 80's Gordon Lightfoot, Kenny Buttrey's drumming on Neil Young's "Harvest"; and the existential dilemma's we faced in modern times.
