Connor Riley on SoundBetter

I’m the guitar player / songwriter for the alternative metal band Wake Up Hate and hard rock band New Vegas. I have recorded all of the guitars on every song in the New Vegas discography. I love creating / performing music and would love to help you take your songs to the next level.

I am a 25 year old guitar player, producer, and future recording engineer. I have been playing guitar for 11 years and have never received a formal lesson. I learned by watching my favorite guitar players such as Synyster Gates and spending countless hours on YouTube watching tutorials. I started my first band when I was 15 years old, and it was at that point I realized music would one day be my career. After years of trial and error, I established the band New Vegas with two former bandmates. We are heavily influenced by bands such as Bring Me The Horizon, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Linkin Park, and Motionless In White. I have been the main songwriter, creative visionary, and main point of contact for all business related inquiries since our inception. We have accumulated over 1,000,000 streams on Spotify since our launch in June of 2019. I have recorded all of the guitars at my studio since the release of our song "As Above, So Below" in May of 2020. I have also programmed all of the drums for our recordings as well as midi bass and various post-production elements. I am offering services in: session guitar recording, drum / bass programming, post-production / fx, songwriting, and guitar editing. I can't wait to bring your vision to life :)

Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.

Connor delivered great guitar tracks for my song! Although my draft version was a MESS, he removed the unnecessaries and filled it with better sounds. Works were done very fast and communication was smooth. Collaboration with Connor is very professional and expeditious without losing quality. Recommend 100/10, GREAT JOB!
