Connor Russo
Connor is from Toronto, Canada and has loved Elvis from the very beginning. His first words were “Blue Shoes” and as a young boy, he loved Elvis like most boys love superheroes. He began performing at the age of 4 and won his first competition at 6 at the Collingwood Elvis Festival.
For Connor, there have always been 2 seasons – Elvis season and hockey season. Connor recently took 2 years away from performing regularly to serve as the Assistant Captain for the Junior A Aurora Tigers in the Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL).
Most recently, Connor has turned his focus to writing and performing his own music in the country genre. Connor is not hiding that he is from a large, urban city, nor the fact that he discovered country music at a later age. In a modern music scene filled with auto-tune and quick hits made for the masses, the authentic song writing and raw musicality of country music is what drew Connor in, and he hopes to replicate that in his own song writing and performances.
