The messyheads song 'Afraid' was a Semi-Finalist in the '2008 International Songwriters Competition' (announced March 2009).
Connor's writing is sharp and incisive.

Messyheads: ‘Devilment’
5 stars
A genre-bending disc, Devilment is the real deal... Totally committed to each song, the Messyheads play the hell out of the disc. Devilment couldn’t be labeled inconsistent, because start to finish, it’s great.
- Kevin Keating, Origivation magazine
The tunes are catchy, original and modern with just enough edge. This is perfect alt-pop. - Robbie, CDReviewsByYou.com
Messyheads is a band that consists of 1 guy writin’ and recording all the parts. He should clone himself and start playin’ out a lot because he meshes really well with himself. “Devilment” has some noisy and driving rock tunes that will leave you believin’ every word he writes in the liner notes. - TheFeveredBrainofRadioMike.com
You know how a song sometimes grabs you, bites you and won’t let you go?
I suggest you cast your line into their ocean and see what I mean! - Don Campau (KKUP & Radio Marabu)
Brilliantly catchy chorus sections that will have you singing along after the second time around - and you won’t get sick of it for a very long time I suspect. - hEARD magazine
Crunchy and sunny, both musical and lyrical chops, a band who have a lot of possibilities, hooks go flying! Soothing pop treats!
- in music we trust magazine
Stark honesty, very crisp and well done. One complaint - I need more songs! - musicemissions
Top-notch. Great, smooth vocals, hooks abound, probably just a matter of time before we’ve allheard of them. They’ve got the chops. Go Messyheads! - punkplanet magazine
Should be sitting on the top of the charts! - outershell
A melodious marathon of stirring sonics, structured of alluring tempos that work like a charm, packed with promise, watch out for the 'messyheads'! - twist & shake magazine
I would definitely give the messyheads an ‘A’ - underground music monthly
