COBB, Calif. – The fifth annual Cobbstock, set for June 11, will feature a local music teen wonder who got his start right here at home.

One of the event's youngest performers is 12-year-old Connor Gill, who will perform as the second act at 1:30 p.m.

The wunderkind performer has been taking guitar lessons from Mark’s Mountain Music since he was 7, and started his musical career at the age of 10 when he was called to the stage to play with blues legend Buddy Guy at the Marin Civic Center.

That same year he placed second at the “Lake County Has Talent” contest with a blues jam, and took home a first place ribbon from the Lake County Fair Talent Show the following summer.

He is a regular performer at the Mountain High Coffee “Open Mic Night” night on Cobb, and has appeared as a special guest with The Lost Boys.

He recently opened a sell-out show for The Lost Boys at the Soper-Reese Theatre in Lakeport.
