Haken
Main article:
Haken was formed by school friends Ross Jennings (vocals), Matthew Marshall (guitar), and Richard Henshall (guitar/keys) in 2004. The members parted ways for a while to study at university, reuniting in 2007. The current members found Peter Jones on keyboards and Raymond Hearne on drums. The sextet put together a self-titled, two-song demo in 2007, followed by an upgraded six-song demo in 2008 called "Enter the 5th Dimension." Jones left soon after, and was replaced by Diego Tejeida. Charlie Griffiths was found on guitar, and Richard Henshall brought in To-Mera member Tom Maclean on bass. Maclean would go on to leave the band in 2013 to be replaced by Conner Green the following year.
Jennings would go on to feature in Richard Henshall's solo album, The Cocoon (2020).
Novena
Novena was originally formed by Harrison White, Moat Lowe, Dan Thornton and Cameron Spence after meeting at University in 2013. The quartet then went on to acquire Jennings and Gareth Mason (Slice the Cake) as their vocalists. With this final 6-piece line-up, the band went on to release Secondary Genesis in 2016 and signed with Frontiers Records to release Eleventh Hour in 2020.
