The young star has already amassed over 1 million YouTube streams, 138K Facebook followers, over 663K followers and 3.5 million likes on TikTok. Connors is no stranger to the spotlight either.

In 2019, he also made it to the Judge Cuts of America’s Got Talent’s 14th season, performing for hundreds of thousands of viewers. He’s sung the National Anthem for nearly every professional Houston sports team, and he has been featured in numerous news articles and interviews including ABC News and Right This Minute. Connors’ newest single “Sayin Too Much” was released January 26th, 2024, capturing his new style and swagger. “Sayin Too Much” was co-written and co-produced with Erich Joseph Niekamp and Tia Sillers (hit songwriter for Dixie Chicks, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Lee Ann Womack, and many more). On this single, Connors dives into a mature manner of writing packed with purpose finding, weathering adversity, and staying true to oneself. At age 10, Connors began performing the national anthem for small organizations, quickly rising up the ranks to regularly singing at major Texas sporting events including NFL, MLB, and NBA. Throughout his Anthem performances, Connors has gathered support from many sport stars including Texan JJ Watt’s tweeting “Could y’all help me get in contact with Nicholas? He dominated the national anthem last night?” Fall of 2023, Connors performed at Nashville’s Film Festival catching the eye of some of the most prestigious Music Supervisors located in Los Angeles, New York, and Nashville. Connors credits his hometown of Pasadena, Texas for his diverse taste in music, performing everything from soul to contemporary pop. He notes that Texas is “not just country people” and his state’s growing diversity has led him to want to “please all kinds of ears”. Connors attributes his success to his mother, who single handedly raised two children with grace and relentlessly supported their dreams. Connors’ first band, Nick and The Groove, formed in 2018 with other young Houston locals, catapulted the teenager to overnight success. Videos of the bands live performances playing “Barracuda” and “Tennessee Whiskey”, went viral on Reddit and Facebook, expanding his fanbase and generating widespread awareness among music media. Now Connors is charting his own course in the music industry with his new single.
