Tennessee native Conner Sweet grew up with a guitar in his hand. Born and raised on the outskirts of Nashville, Sweet comes from a long line of singers and musicians, so it was only natural that music would be a main passion in his life. The authenticity of Sweet’s traditional country style reflects early influences by country legends such as George Jones, Johnny Cash and George Strait as well as some of his current favorites Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan and Thomas Rhett. Writing songs since he was 16, Sweet scored his first radio single in 2020 with Times Like These. It hit home for many during the pandemic, reaching #37 on the Billboard Country Indicator Chart and #22 on the Music Row Break Out Chart. It finished 2020 as one of the most played country songs by an independent artist that year. His days are spent writing and performing for a solid fan base that he has built from Nashville’s live circuit. “I wake up every day grateful that I get to write songs and make music for a living. It’s what I have always dreamed of, and I know, regardless of the size of the stage, I will always be on one somewhere.”
