Prof Doug Leacock
If you are lifted and inspired by gospel music then you will love the offerings of singer/songwriter - Professor Doug Leacock. His writing spans from the gamut from a warm ballad to the hand clapping and toe tapping gospel performance. He is also contemporary in sound with a dash of r&b and pop in his music!
