The Lost Singer-Songwriter: Sarah-Jane Morris on Connie Converse, Music's Hidden Hero
Update: 2025-07-15
Description
A decade before Dylan, there was Connie Converse – arguably the very first singer-songwriter with inner-city tales of loss and longing. But have you heard of her? Have you heard her music?
Connie's story is the epitome of forgotten history, hidden history. But her name deserves to be shouted from the rooftops.
Oswin and Carla are joined today by the singer Sarah-Jane Morris to help us understand the joy and sorrow of Connie’s short life, the pressures on women in the music industry then and now and how luck, time and place can conspire to sweep unsung heroes away – even as their music still remains.
