Background

The band is a melodic hardcore group formed in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, from 2011. The band released two full-length records, Worn Out (Self-Released in 2013) and When Given Time To Grow (2015 via Victory Records).[1] After releasing Worn Out in 2013, frontman Daniels left the group to go back to school and get married. The band reached out to Indianapolis, Indiana native, Danny Adams, formerly of All Became New.[2] He brought along with him, fellow ABN member Daniel Glover on drums, and the group added guitarist, Nick Matako, before they signed with Victory Records.

Conveyer has toured relentlessly since 2013, including tours with: Ghost Key (No Sleep Records), Until We Are Ghosts (InVogue Records), Dwell (Blood & Ink Records), Household (Blood & Ink Records), Gatherers (Equal Vision Records), High Hopes (Victory Records), Comrades (Facedown Records), Colossus (Facedown Records), Strengthen What Remains (Blood & Ink Records), Prophets, Dependence (InVogue Records), Motives (InVogue Records), Letter to the Exiles (Facedown Records), We the Gathered (Facedown Records), and Reap & Sow (Cognitive Dissonance).

In 2017, Conveyer added bassist Jake Smith and John Gaskill (formerly of Life In Your Way) upon the departures of Ben Greene and Daniel Glover.

Music history

The band formed in 2011, playing regionally throughout the first few years in the midwest. The band released 3 EPs (Signal Fire, Empty Handed & MMXII) before self-releasing Worn Out, on December 31, 2013.[3] After releasing Worn Out, Bryan Maloney, Carter Daniels and Jacob Haag all exited the band to pursue their careers outside of the band. The band added Danny Adams and Daniel Glover and quickly caught the attention of Victory Records.[4] Their subsequent release, When Given Time to Grow, was released on September 4, 2015, through Victory Records.[5][6][7][8]
