Chris Conner In Memoriam.
I loved my friend.
He went away from me.
There's nothing more to say.
The poem ends,
Soft as it began,...
I loved my friend.
-Langston Hughes
For many years, Chris was one of Sing! Sing! Sing!’s featured and valued musicians.
“We grew accustomed to his bass… he always made the show begin….”
His bass was originally owned by Ray Brown, then Andy Simpkins... and Chris Conner who brought out the most beautiful sounds and rhythms for our’s and many other performances.
He will be greatly missed and impossible to replace.
