I’m Bernadette Connors—an artist, facilitator, and community builder based in Hamilton, Ontario.

I grew up living above my family’s music store in Georgina, Ontario—Connors Music, which my parents opened in 1978 in Keswick. Music wasn’t something I stumbled into later in life; it was the environment I was raised in. The sound of it, the business of it, the people coming in and out of it—it shaped how I understand connection, creativity, and community.

What started as a pursuit of music has grown into something bigger: creating spaces where artists feel seen, supported, and inspired to keep going—especially in the messy middle.

THIS IS THE WORLD I’M BUILDING

Not everything fits into a box—and it’s not supposed to.

Here are a few ways to step into the work:

 Experience
Live music, intimate shows, songwriter circles, and listening rooms

 Community
Spaces for artists to grow, connect, and build sustainable creative lives—including 28 Music, Roots & Wings, and SoundCheck Conversations (coming soon)

 Work With Me
Voice coaching and artist support rooted in alignment, confidence, and clarity

 Artist
My music, performances, and creative work
