High Fade

High Fade are on a three-man crusade to set the EM2 ablaze on the 19th of april! A fresh take on funk and disco with some raunchy guitar action. These Scots are already endorsed by Jack Black, Cypress Hill, Deep Purple’s Glenn Hughes, and Brad Wilk from Rage Against The Machine. The band are at their best when up close and personal with audiences, full of highly entertaining and unpredictable moves!

Anyone up for burnt toast & coffee?

Edinburgh’s High Fade captured the attention of a global audience with their music amassing over 30 million views and streams. All this within six months of their first release. For a band that only started mid-2018, to already have the support of artists including Emeli Sandé, David Paitch and even Peter Andre is a testament to not only their raw musical talent but also the relentless drive and ambition. This is also reflected in the over 1000 gigs the band have played in the last four years.

Harry Valentino (guitar/vocals), Oliver Sentance (bass) and Calvin Davidson (drums) developed their infectious style whilst feeding off the unpredictable crowd interactions that come with street shows and busking. It’s this unmatched live energy that sets the High Fade performances apart and results in the impressive musical display that comes from just three musicians working together. Indeed, with other acts in the same genre often having upwards of six members, being a three-piece could be a limiting factor for many. However, for High Fade it has become an integral part of the band’s DNA.

Inspired by the old-school soul and Motown of John Legend and Barry White to the classic rock of bands like Kiss and Motley Crue. High Fade draws on the musical tastes and experiences of all three members, extracting the best bits of each and serving the funky, disco-inspired results up live on stage.

By their own admission, “High Fade doesn’t work unless there’s a crowd, a dance floor and people that want to get down”. Luckily, this is exactly what we like to do here at EM2. So get ready to dance to the infectious high energy funk of this incredibly talented trio!
