Halcyon Way Gears Up For Us Tour With Queensryche 

Halcyon Way

Atlanta, Georgia’s HALCYON WAY are about to hit the road with the legendary Queensryche for a month-long USA tour to support their Billboard-charting 4th album, Conquer. The tour starts on January 7, 2016 in San Jose, CA and continues their string of high profile tours in the USA & abroad with bands such as Saxon, Skid Row, Fates Warning, UDO, Delain, and Fozzy.  The tour runs through February 4th in Salt Lake City, UT, a complete list of dates is below.

 

Conquer hit the shelves to universal critical acclaim in August of 2014 and the band has performed on three continents since then to promote its release.  The lead single, “Web Of Lies” spent 6 weeks on the CMJ Hard Top 10.  Conquer was produced by guitarist Jon Bodan and Lasse Lammert (Alestorm, Gloryhammer), who has mixed all of the band’s releases.

“HW is super excited to hit the road in the USA again to support our Conquer release, and to be able to go out with Queensryche, who are an all-time favorite band of mine, is incredibly cool.  The guys are on a huge upswing with their new album, and we’re proud to help them kick off their touring season for it.”

 

Guitarist Jon Bodan about the upcoming tour:

 

“HALCYON WAY have been looking for another great tour to get onto for USA to support the Conquer release, and getting to go out with Queensryche for a month is going to be an amazing experience.  ‘Operation:Mindcrime’ is probably my favorite album of all time and I consider these guys to be a big influence on my playing & writing style.  So we’re really excited about getting out there in front of our fans again in the USA, and also for hitting the road with Queensryche.  Then as soon as we get back off the road, we’re going to get back to work on our 5th album, which is mostly written already.”

 

The band recently started pre-production for the follow-up to Conquer and plans to hit the studio in Spring of 2016.
