A passion to be a beacon in a world that embraces darkness and negativity is what pushes Conman Economy to create art that will both inspire and initiate a change in those who partake in it. The Missouri-based quintet was founded in 2012, and released their debut EP, “Reach,” in 2015, featuring the heavy-hitting single, “Can’t Hold Me Back.” Having completed numerous regional tours and continually gaining stronger footholds in scenes across the Midwest, current members Anthony Brummer (vocalist/guitarist), Jon Gooch (vocalist), Bridger Creed (drummer), Evan Winter (guitarist), and Dylan Painter (bassist) teamed up to release “Silent Eyes,” the group’s sophomore release in 2019. Through the blending of many styles (such as pop punk, metalcore, and emo), a diverse catalog is formed, guaranteeing each track to be its own unique creation. Couple that with honest, no-holds-barred lyrics and catchy riffs, Conman Economy is an experience that will no-doubt leave an impression on those witness them.
