They came into being as late as 2007, and ever sine the release of their debut album Aquarius in 2010 this is a band we have been following closely. Haken have seen a rapid rise in popularity in the relative few years they have been around, landing a record deal with US label Lasers Edge for their second album Visions in 2011, a production that further elevated their stature amongst people with an interested in sophisticated music. Haken was signed to renowned German label Inside Out for their third studio CD The Mountain in 2013, an album that firmly cemented Hakens place as one of the elite performers in the current progressive rock and metal scene with their brand of progressive metal flavored with jazzoriented touches and an approach that have earned them comparisons to the likes of Gentle Giant. The current line-up of Haken is Charlie Griffiths (guitars), Ray Hearne (drums), Richard Henshall (guitars, keyboards), Ross Jennings (vocals), Diego Tejeida (keyboards) and Conner Green (bass).
Haken is an obvious choice as headliners for ROSfest. Weve had them on our list for a few years now, and following an increasing demand by our core audience were excited to finally be able to announce them for ROSfest 2015″.
