Hi. My name is Connor Hagwood. I am 11 years old and I play the Mandolin for the band. I’ve been playing the mandolin since I was 7 (2004). My favorite hobbies are riding bikes with my friends, playing basketball and working with my uncle in the summer on his farm. I have been home-schooled since 2004. I enjoy going to bluegrass festivals and concerts around North Carolina. My favorite songs are “ Ole Joe Clark ” and “ Raw Hide”. I play a Sigma SM-6 mandolin. My favorite band is Ricky Scaggs and Kentucky Thunder, Constant Change, Al Batten and the Bluegrass Reunion and Cherryholmes. I have had the opportunity to play onstage with Al Batten and Constant Change.
