Little Hills in front of more than 10,000 people. This experience was just the beginning for
Connor. He began studying classical, jazz, rock, and blues with many respected guitar
teachers and players in the area along with performing everywhere that he could,
from festivals, charity, and community events, restaurants and coffee shops, to talent shows
and open jams. He quickly captured the attention and respect of the St. Louis music
