"Southern California singer-songwriter Mara Connor pays tribute to her roots with her delightfully bright debut single, 'No Fun.' It's a promising sign for this newcomer, and all that retro flavor never stops this song from sounding like right now."
 
One of the'12 best up-and-coming bands and artists at SXSW':
"[Connor] demonstrated poise and a clear voice..."

No. 1 Favorite Song of 2018:
"As for the song that landed at No. 1, Mara Connor's 'No Fun,' I thought 'stone cold classic pop song' the first time I listened to it. And I thought 'stone cold classic pop song' the 100th time I listened to it.


LA native  Mara Connor announces new West coast tour dates supporting Dead Horses as well as solo shows in San Francisco and San Luis Obispo. The tour kicks off in Seattle at Sunset Tavern and ends with a homecoming show at The Echo in Los Angeles.
 
Connor's new single " Someone New," a duet with Langhorne Slim, recently surpassed 200K Spotify streams. It was named one of Rolling Stone's "10 Best Americana and Country Songs To Hear Now" (along with Mavis Staples and Lukas Nelson) and KCRW's "Today's Top Tune."
 
Her debut single/video " No Fun" also received almost instantaneous praise from tastemakers on all ends of the music industry. Rolling Stone lauded "No Fun" in both their "Song You Need to Know" and "This Week in Music" columns (in good company with St. Vincent, Neil Young, The 1975, and Travis Scott) and Buzzbands named it their "No. 1 Favorite Song of 2018."
 
Mara Connor's live performance is not to be missed. She made her SXSW debut this year and was called one of the "12 best up-and-coming artists at SXSW" by Greg Kot at Chicago Tribune.
