ARTIST PROFILE:

Connor Leimer is a New York City based musician, songwriter and record-maker. Born in Kansas City and raised on the DIY music scene, Connor’s talent’s quickly grabbed the attention of the music industry with the release of his debut album “Postcard” in 2015.

By 21, Connor released his celebrated single “Brooklyn”, performed at The Recording Academy’s Grammy Museum at L.A. Live, cut his teeth in the studio with Nashville’s top session players and graced the cover of Visual Tales Magazine shot by legendary Vogue photographer Arthur Elgort.

In 2022, Connor released a second full length album “Writing Copies” recorded entirely on a Neve 8014 console in five days of back-to-back sessions produced by whiz mixer Kyle Dreaden and mastered by the legendary Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound.

In 2023, Connor embarked on his most ambitious act yet – releasing the 15 song double album “In New York, at 22” produced by folk/pop artist Josh Rouse, Grammy-Award winning producer Matt Rollings and Kyle Dreaden. The double LP features new singles, previously unreleased Michael Brauer mixes and a medley of works all detailing the artist’s first impressions of New York City. May this definitive body of work be a lens and soundtrack in which to experience the wondrous metropolis.

In 2024, Connor released the single “The Wife Who Waited” produced by and featuring Pete Francis (cofounder of Dispatch) on electric guitar. The song was included as a hidden track on the 10th anniversary gatefold vinyl edition of “Postcard” along with a newly written album forward.
