Originally hailing from the frozen tundra of Minnesota, Connor Engstrom has been melting faces with his guitar for 20 years! He is a musician and a producer, specializing in a unique blend of orchestral and power metal music, but his influences are broad and tasteful.
He is no stranger to playing live having been a guitarist for the Broadway show "Rock of Ages" and bass and guitarist for the world-renown dance show "Burn the Floor." He has also been a reserve/on-call guitarist for the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
Connor has also composed, performed on, and produced albums with internationally-known artists, and written music that has been used for film and television.
When he is not shredding up a storm or writing the next anthem of a generation, he enjoys petting cats and long walks on the beach with his wife.
