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

You blew me away at Cowpie Blues. I was just plain floored by your set. I see a lot of live music, but most of it can't hold a candle to what you do!

Thanks for the add, and I can't wait to see you again.
