The two shared a similar interest in musical tastes and so formed the idea for The Shroud of Gaia. The band completed their lineup with a Vocalist - Cody James Wood, who they met through mutual acquaintances. Bassist - Kenny Butcher who was friends with Cody James Wood and drummer Brennen Creighton Young, who they met on an online forum. With this line up the band was able to win the Norfolk County Fair and Horse Show and battle of the bands and were able to secure the win, which was unheard of, being that they were unable to include their vocalist at that time.
