With the Disco Biscuits’ schedule slowing down, bassist Marc Brownstein and keyboardist Aron Magner devoted much of 2011 to Conspirator, with the help of guitarist Chris Michetti and a cast of rotating drummers. It looks like 2012 will be an equally busy year for Conspirator as well. In February, Conspirator will embark on their Blizzard of Beats Tour throughout Colorado and the Midwest. Conspirator will be joined by Glitch Hop artist Ben Samples for all six Colorado shows, while Dr. Fameus—the alter ego of the Disco Biscuits’ Allen Aucoin—will join the band for a portion of their shows. Orchard Lounge’s Ben Silver will also appear at the Milwaukee and Minneapolis shows, along with Alpha Data, whose first ever EP, Nefertiti, will be released November 29 on Grunt Worthy. In addition, the group will play two shows with Lotus.
