Funk/Rock trio High Fade – consisting of founder Harry Valentino (Guitar, Vocals), Oliver Sentence (Bass, Mustache) and drummer Heath Campbell (Drums) has grown from Scotland’s most excited busking band into a household name across the world after bursting onto the scene with viral sensations such as “Burnt Toast & Coffee”, “Gossip”, “Burnin’”, and an audacious cover of Herbie Hancock’s “Chameleon”. Sold out tours across the UK, USA, and Europe have seen the band get well over 1,500 shows under their belt, allowing High Fade to fast become one of the most ferocious touring bands on the planet. Delivering shows that are packed with raw energy and jaw-dropping musicianship, thye refuse to accept the limits of what a three-piece band can do.
With sold out tours across the UK, USA, and Europe; and impactful slots at dozens of festivals like Boomtown (UK), Suwannee Hulaween (USA) and Glastonbury – where they performed three times in one day in 2024 – High Fade have come a long way from that street corner in Edinburgh. Drawing inspiration from funk, rock, disco, jazz, metal, punk, soul, and beyond, High Fade has developed a sound that explodes out of a rip-roaring melting point of musical influences and tears at the fabric of space time by managing to feel simultaneously fresh and retro. Firecly independent, the band releases music via their own label RPN Records (“Rippin’ Records”), including their debut album, Life’s Too Fast (2024), which charted in the UK, Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, USA, and Australia. Not bad for an independent DIY band operating entirely outside of the Major Label system. High Fade’s sophomore LP, Twice As Nice, due for release on RPN Records May 2026, was recorded at two of the world’s most renowned studios, East Iris Studios in Nashville and RAK Studios in London. The hotly anticipated new album arrives just in time for the band’s massive 50-date Twice As Nice tour that will bring the band to all corners of the USA and Canada this Spring and Summer.
