An experienced vocalist, Connor also works extensively as a session singer in London. With Capital Voices, he enjoyed working on the latest series of ‘Britain’s Got Talent: The Champions’, as well as Netflix feature film: ‘Eurovision’. And as part of London Contemporary Voices, Connor enjoyed the honour of performing in a 50th anniversary special celebrating The Beatles & their final album, recorded for BBC Radio 2 at the world-famous Abbey Road Studios.

 

Connor had previously performed at Abbey Road as a backing vocalist for 22-time Grammy award-winning band U2. This was filmed for a TV Special that aired on BBC One. 'Beautiful Day' – the opening of "U2 at the BBC" – is available to view on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mdDFyrGkCE

Auld Lang Syne

Released in April 2020, Auld Lang Syne features on the album 'Ae Fond Kiss: Songs of Home from the West End', which was recorded and produced in total isolation due to covid-19. Connor and five fellow Scottish artists recorded a variety of traditional and beloved Scots songs - newly arranged by Adam Gerber - remotely, as a love letter to home.

When the Saints Go Marching In

In August 2013, Connor uploaded a home-recorded version of When The Saints Go Marching In. Recording the individual parts separately, then layering each on top of one another in a spliscreen fashion, the video shot to viral fame overnight! It was featured on the homepage of MSN.com and has since been watched by over 1 million viewers across YouTube, Yahoo and other media outlets.
