Alpha Omega Management has announced the signing of progressive power metal monsters, Artizan, to its roster family.

Founded by drummer Ty Tammeus in 2008, Artizan crafts powerful, traditional metal. Dynamic arrangements, dominant rhythms and soaring melodies are key ingredients to the Artizan formula. The band has released three critically acclaimed albums via German record label Pure Steel Records, all produced by legendary producer Jim Morris (Iced Earth, Death, Jag Panzer, Crimson Glory): Curse Of The Artizan (2011), Ancestral Energy (2013) with guest vocalist Matt Barlow (Iced Earth), The Furthest Reaches (2015) - an epic sci-fi rock opera featuring guest vocalists Sabrina Cruz (Seven Kingdoms) and Matt Barlow (Iced Earth). Artizan was honored to be direct support for Fates Warning on their 2013 tour and recently performed at the legendary Keep It True festival in Germany.

Singer Tom Braden’s distinctive tone, strength and range are fundamental elements that personify the Artizan sound. Artizan is currently working on their fourth album slated for a mid-2017 release. Jim Morris is expected to be at the helm as producer again.

Artizan drummer and founder, Ty Tammeus states: "We look forward to an exciting future with the team at Alpha Omega. Their talent, combined with the solid foundation we have established, should foster fresh opportunities, ultimately exposing us to a wealth of new fans."

Alpha Omega Management adds: "We're so glad to welcome these guys in Artizan to our Family! Their music is forged with towering vocals, glorious melodies and triumphant riffs. In three words: "Dynamic, powerful and majestic", this is Artizan! Stay tuned for next announcements for the shows and else!"
