JazzSinger, songwriter, arranger, bandleader, multi-instrumentalist, producer, A&R man, and label executive, Connie Conway was an unstoppable musical force in the burgeoning 1950s Phoenix, AZ, music scene. In June 1955, Connie, along with longtime musical colleagues Paul Humlee, James Wilcox, and George Welch, founded Music Counselors, Inc., dba MCI Records.
