Bio
............MySpace Layouts..........MySpace Layouts.... .. REVIEWS:.. .. "Connor boasts a strong voice and is a truly dazzling guitarist, with a flaming slide attack." - ..Billboard...... "The obvious comparison is Bonnie Raitt, since she's female and plays blues guitar. I say Connor's a soprano Johnny Winter. Most blues records miss the passion that made the original stuff compelling. This one reclaims it all." - ..Playboy (regarding the album "Fight")...... "...a powerhouse guitarist with a sense of rock dynamics - her playing has a fire that is free of self-indulgence." - ..Chicago Sun-Times...... "She brings a revved-up rock flavor to the blues with a desire to move the music forward, not just embalm it." - ..Boston Globe...... "She slings a steaming guitar, literally burning through every solo she plays." - ..Cashbox...... Connor simply kicks ass..." - ..Pulse!...... "Best R&B Vocalist of the Year" - ..Worcester Magazine...... .... .. .. .. .... LIVE SNIPPITS FROM HOB '07.. (watch the remainder of this vid on Youtube)..
