Welcome to The Connie Converse Universe, a showcasing of Connie Converse's unique songs by acclaimed vocalist Hope Levy.

 

Before Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell hit the folk scene in the 1960s, Connie Converse performed self-written songs for friends in the early 1950s. She disappeared in August of 1974 never to be seen or heard from again. Decades later, the world heard her songs when a CD of her original demo recordings from 1954 was released in 2009 and went viral on Spotify; a biographical examination of Connie Converse's life by Howard Fishman has been published (May 2023) from Dutton Books.

"Hope Levy honors Connie Converse's legacy while making the songs her own in a night of poignant, often hilarious cabaret entertainment. …Wherever she is, Connie Converse couldn't wish for a more heart felt interpreter than Hope Levy."  

— Eric Lindbom, Co-Editor TriggerWarningShortFiction.com

“Hope Levy takes you on a journey in song and story, exploring the life and mystery of Connie Converse. Along the way, Hope's clear beautiful voice elevates the experience as she tells her own funny poignant anecdotes about growing up with a love of music. It's more than entertainment, it's a tribute to a talented gone-too-soon singer songwriter.”

— Patricia Lawler Kenet, Writer.
