Nova Collective

Nova Collective Began In 2014 When Bassist Dan Briggs BTBAM Trioscapes And Guitarist Richard Henshall Haken Began Exchanging Emails About Music In General And Before Long A Few Demos Were Being Exchanged And Fleshed Out Into Full Arrangements. Drummer Matt Lynch Trioscapes Cynic And Keyboardist Pete Jones Ex-Haken Came On Board Shortly After To Finish Writing The Album. The Further Side Was Written On Both Sides Of The Atlantic Ocean With Briggs And Lynch In America And Henshall And Jones In England Sharing Session Files Until The Group Could Get Together At The Beginning Of 2015 To Record With Engineer Jamie King BTBAM The Contortionist . The Album Was Mixed By Rich Mouser Neal Morse Transatlantic . Nova Collective's Music Can Be Described As Fusion Weaving Progressive Rock Influences With World Music Jazz And Classical.
