Connolly, a songwriter and performer from Issaquah, will draw from both new material and favorites from his growing catalog. His performances blend musicianship with spontaneity and improvisation.

Connolly has beenbuilding a reputation as one of the Seattle area’s most passionate and driven songwriters and performers. His debut release “Running Under Water,” produced by Don Gunn paved the way for this former U.S. Navy deep-sea diver turned musician. Connolly immediately released his second album “Low to High,” a tribute to his Irish roots, and was promptly scooped up by the Kirkland Performance Center for his debut as a presented artist. He has been asked to perform for the Dalai Lama, has opened for a member of the Eagles‘ Timothy B. Schmitt and headlined at clubs such as the Triple Door.
