Connor Created the Perfect Vibe for Our Event

Connor was an absolute pleasure to work with and a fantastic addition to our event. From the very beginning, his communication was professional, timely, and easy to work with, making the planning process seamless. His musical talent is outstanding, and he did an excellent job reading the room and selecting songs that perfectly matched our audience.

Connor created the ideal ambiance for the event, bringing great energy, atmosphere, and vibes without ever overpowering the experience. We received numerous positive comments from attendees, and his performance truly elevated the event.

I highly recommend Connor for any event looking for quality live music and a dependable, professional musician. We look forward to working with him again for future events. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Perfect Entertainment

Conner is great! He was very communicative, he arrived on time, he set up all of his own stuff, and even assisted with us trying to set up ours. His vibe is amazing and was exactly what we were looking for. He is so sweet, and so talented. He is an amazing addition to whatever event you'll have him at.

A wonderful experience!

Connor was everything we could have asked for…professional, thoughtful, timely, engaging, and, most importantly, a fantastic musician. I threw a 50th birthday party for my girlfriend and he truly elevated the event. He has a very large repertoire of songs to choose from and even learned a new song that was my girlfriend’s favorite. He set such a wonderful tone for the party (people were raving about him even after he left) and I am so, so grateful that I hired him.

Wonderful Performer, Knows Lots of Songs

Conner entertained my residents for a Valentine's holiday party for a Nursing home and did a terrific job. He interacted well with our residents and took photos with them later. I would highly recommend Conner and wish him well in his singing career.

What to expect

I'm more than happy to accommodate any dress code for events (suit and tie, etc.)! For more casual gigs, I usually wear my grey boots, black jean pants, jean jacket, and some sort of button up shirt.

I'm extremely punctual and after more than 400 gigs since 2015 I have plenty of references I can provide should you need extra assurance that you'll be in good hands.

For background music gigs, my volume level is always at a comfortable volume for your guests.

If hired to entertain your guests, you can expect a guy who looks young, is funny, caring and attentive to your guests!

About

I wasn’t groomed for music, I played volleyball for as long as I can remember (parents met each other on the court). As a result, my story will sound pretty similar to High School Musical – the jock secretly expressing himself through music and slowly growing more comfortable singing in front of people.

I’m distracted by what makes a good song – the distance between notes that pulls at your attention, the phrase that sticks to your brain when you lay down for sleep. I care about words, particularly in a well-written song.

At the end of 2014 I made a goal to write 40 songs within 6 months. That time is gone and I’ve officially written more than 120, some of which are really bad…

…and you’ll probably never hear them.

I figured if I wrote that many, at least I’d have a few we could all enjoy.

That brings us to right now, an exciting time where I’m coming to realize that this game is about way more than making songs. It’s about making allies and good friends and really affecting people in the guts. I could use a friend, and your guts, so…if you see me…please say hi :)

Additional booking notes

Since I have my own sounds setup, all I'll need is a power source within 50 feet of where I'm setting up.

When playing outdoors, a shade structure is greatly appreciated to help insure against rain (only necessary during rainy portions of the year).
