If you dream of an unforgettable California wedding celebration, then you've come to the right place! I'm Conor James, a wedding singer, pianist, and performer based in Los Angeles, CA. I have over a decade of experience bringing the greatest songs ever written to life in my own unique way. You may have seen me on The Voice (Top 12, Season 27, Team Adam). Still, before and after national television, my real passion has always been creating unforgettable moments at real-life celebrations. Weddings are a huge investment and should feel deeply personal to you. Music has a unique power to amplify the magic, and I believe your wedding day deserves a soundtrack as unique and powerful as your love story.
From the wedding ceremony to the first dance, from intimate elopements to full-scale receptions, I offer bespoke live music experiences that bring elegance and soul to your day. I'll work with you to design the perfect musical journey that matches your one-of-a-kind vision and elevates every single moment.
WHAT I OFFER:
🎤 Live Vocals and Piano
My signature setup features soulful, expressive vocals accompanied by live piano: a warm, timeless combination that fits beautifully into romantic ceremonies, first dances, and cocktail sets. I bring my own sound setup if needed, and I can adapt the vibe to feel classic, contemporary, or somewhere in between.
🎧 Band Options
Want the full band feel? I collaborate with an incredible network of pro musicians. We can scale up to a three- to six-piece ensemble if your budget and venue allow.
💌 Personalization
Every couple is different, and I treat your wedding like the once-in-a-lifetime event it is. I'll work with you to curate a setlist that reflects your taste and your love story.
🎵 Ceremony, Cocktail, Dinner, Reception
You can book me for one part of your wedding or the whole journey:
• Ceremony: romantic, cinematic walk-down-the-aisle vibes
• Cocktail hour: jazzy, indie, or nostalgic background sets
• Dinner: soft, tasteful background music while guests mingle
• Reception (full band): high-energy live sets to get your guests moving
REPERTOIRE:
Ask me for my full wedding repertoire! From Beyonce to Billy Joel...Timeless ballads, 2000s throwbacks, indie gems, and soulful bangers. From aisle to afterparty, I play the greatest songs ever written. My set feels personal, nostalgic, and fresh. Have songs in mind? Personalization is part of what I offer. Just ask, and we'll explore what's possible.

Conor James is an exceptional singer and piano player. Conor was extremely professional throughout the entire experience, from the start of hiring him to the actual day of our event. We hired Conor to sing and play piano for a few hour set at our Wedding Welcome Reception. Being an extremely personal moment for my husband and I, we were very selective and had a clear vision. Conor's talent speaks for itself, but he was also organized by sending us his song list based on the vibes we wanted, and even added more songs that we wanted played. He was communicative and thorough from hiring to day of our reception. His music added a great ambience for my husband and I, as well as all of our guests. Would 10/10 recommend. Thank you, Conor, for making it such a remarkable experience for us!

Conor makes magic on with his music. He is a total pro and brings so much love and light to the party. He can play anything from ballads to pop. We have hired him multiple times and each time he brings people to their feet dancing and singing along.

We wanted a small, cozy wedding at home and Conor made it feel like a movie. He played piano and sang through dinner and then turned it up when it was time to dance. He brought his own equipment and set everything up himself. He was excellent background music but also very engaging for our guests. Our friends said it was the best live music they’d ever heard at a wedding. We loved it! Definitely recommend.

Conor set the perfect vibe for our rehearsal dinner. I had seen him on the voice and loved his performances so when I saw that I could hire him, I just had to! He did not disappoint. Smooth, soulful, and easy to work with from day one. He mixed in classics with a few of our favorite Ed Sheeran songs and made everyone feel relaxed and happy. Even my dad (HARD to please) was raving. Hire Conor!

We booked Conor for our welcome party and he instantly became part of the crew. His mix of pop, R and B, and throwbacks hit every generation in the crowd. Super easy to communicate with and so genuine. Five stars all day.
