EXMORTUS WRAP UP WINTER TOUR, FRONTMAN CONAN DEBUTS CLASSICAL COVER PROJECT, “CONAN’S CONQUEST”

Following an extensive year of non-stop touring in support of their critically acclaimed new release “Ride Forth“, Los Angeles neoclassical shred outfit EXMORTUS have just completed an immensely successful winter jaunt across North America alongside Children of Bodom, Abbatth and ONI. Depicted as “modern day thrash-meets-old school Michael Angelo Batio & Yngwie Malmsteen all squished into one” (Metal Wani), the group will stop by El Paso, TX’s The Warehouse on December 22 for a final headlining show before heading home for the holidays.

While not busy out on the road with acts including Amon Amarth, Marty Friedman, Enforcer, Warbringer, Entombed A.D., Holy Grail and Cauldron – just to name a few, vocalist/guitarist Conan took time to begin a new solo project,CONAN’S CONQUEST, which features his own take on popular classical songs. Just in time for the holiday season, he recorded his take on the famous Russian composer Tchaikovsky’s  eight track ensemble, “The Nutcracker Suite” with Allen Falcon at Birdcage Studios.

CONAN stated, “I’ve been wanting to record this masterpiece for quite some time now and it’s finally complete and I’m very proud of the work! Enjoy this rendition of your favorite tunes this Christmas/Yule or any other time of the year!
