This band would go on to make history in the world of rock music, not only for their music but also for their bold exploration of occult and witchcraft themes. @RockandRollUniverse Coven was formed by Jinx Dawson, a charismatic and enigmatic singer who was drawn to the world of witchcraft and the occult.
