NOVA COLLECTIVE: Members of BTBAM, TRIOSCAPES & HAKEN Form New Band

by | Dec 5, 2016

You know we have a soft spot for anything Dan Briggs touches. Between The Buried And Me’s bassist has kept us on the edge with numerous projects over the years — Orbs and Trioscapes to name a couple — and now he’s got a new band in the works: Nova Collective.
