Conor Albert
20 year-old producer and multi-instrumentalist Conor Albert starting making beats and playing guitar at the age of 8, peddling his homemade albums to friends in the school playground. Exploring dubstep and EDM in his early teens, it was listening to artists such as FKJ, Tom Misch and Jordan Rakei whilst learning piano and bass that encouraged him to make jazz-inspired beat-driven music.
Conor quickly gained a sizable following on Soundcloud with his early demos gaining over a million streams on the platform. This lead to collaborations with artists such as Marie Dahlstrom, James Vickery and Carmody amongst others. Catching the ears and advice of both Howard Lawrence from Disclosure and Tom Misch, Conor released his official debut track ‘Only You’ on 24th May via Young Poet Records.
September 20th brought the release of his second single "My Kind of Love", a collaboration with fellow South London songstress Carmody. With a full EP expected for early 2020, Conor is one to watch for the future.
