Having shared the stage with the likes of Sevendust, Adema, Tricky and 3 Doors Down, Cookeville, Tenn.-based Novena’s roots can be traced back to 1999, when childhood friends Brad Hensley and Seth Robertson decided to team up on a few electronic-influenced tracks as ‘evendeeper.’ Soon, Hensley and Robertson added Sam Hawkins (drums) and Will Smith (bass) to the ranks of evendeeper, and took to the local music scene. Having enjoyed widespread airplay on many of the mid-state’s most well-known rock radio stations, the band earned a spot on 102.9 FM’s Buzzfest 2 at Starwood Amphitheatre in Nashville. The band appeared alongside artists including Mesh, Nickelback, Tricky, Ben Folds and Sevendust. On Halloween night of 2004, the new line-up – now known by its current moniker – Novena made its debut, departing from the 90s sound of evendeeper. Read more on Last.fm.
