Novena is a new
progressive metal/rock act from the UK that features frontman Ross Jennings,
also of Haken in addition to other established UK musicians. They band exploits
fully the world class skills of their talented line-up: Ross Jennings’
(HAKEN) unmatchable voice, to Gareth Mason’s (Slice The Cake) inimitable poetry; Dan Thornton’s (Ex-HAARP Machine, Ex-No Sin Evades His Gaze) blistering
guitar work, to Cameron Spence’s (Ravenface) invariably musical drumming, deeply rooted in pop
idiom, and unlike anything else in the modern prog scene; from Moat Lowe’s (Slugdge, Ex-NSEHG) expressive and versatile bass playing to
Harrison White’s (Theatrical
Director and Composer) complex and nuanced compositions. Novena delivers
something greater than the sum of its parts.
Novena established
themselves on the UK and international prog scenes in 2016 with the release of
their widely praised experimental EP “Secondary Genesis” in 2016 and is now ready for a comeback with
their sophomore release, “Eleventh Hour”. Performing at high profile concerts
like UK-Tech Fest 2016 and 2017, as well as other dates supporting Skyharbor,
Vola, Sithu Aye, and others, Novena has been busy establishing themselves as a
force to be reckoned with.
Novena’s music moves from the profound to the profane, from the fragile
to the unforgiving, and from the introspective to the utterly destructive,
exploring a plethora of different genres along the way. Despite this, every
song has a solid and personal identity, with choruses that dare the listener to
try and not forget them.
Fans of intelligent, engaging, emotional music will have much to indulge their mind and spirits in with this band. Novena are ready to embark on a tour in support to the spring release of the new album. Dates forthcoming.
