New Taipei, Taiwan, July 22, 2024…Conner Eisenmenger, esteemed educator and clinician, is joining the artist roster for XO Brass. Hailing from Louisville, Kentucky, Eisenmenger has quickly made a name for himself in the Seattle music scene. A graduate of the University of North Texas and former member of the renowned One O'Clock Lab Band, Eisenmenger's journey westward has seen him perform alongside the Seattle Symphony, the Seattle Opera, Beck, the Seattle Repertory Jazz Orchestra, Louis Prima Jr., Tito Puente Jr., Johnny Mathis, the Abilene Philharmonic, and the Nintendo Live’s Super Mario Super Big Band.

In 2022, Eisenmenger was honored with the ASCAP Foundation Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Award for his composition "Choice Paralysis," showcasing his exceptional talent and creativity in jazz composition.

Eisenmenger’s instrument of choice is the 1634 Trombone. He explains, "The expert craftsmanship by XO Brass allows for a horn with robust tone quality without sacrificing agility, consistency, or effortless response. It’s a privilege to play an instrument that helps me express myself and push my musical imagination with such ease."

“We are extremely excited to have Conner as part of the XO Brass artist roster.” John Richardson, Artist & Educator Relations Manager for KHS America states, “He is making quite a name for himself in the Northwest, playing in several different musical groups including his own trio.
