High Fade « Twice As Nice Tour 2026 »

High Fade bring their funk-rock pulse to Hot Box Live Events in Chelmsford on 9 November 2026 for the Twice As Nice Tour 2026. The Glasgow trio — Harry Valentino (guitar, vocals), Oliver Sentence (bass) and Heath Campbell (drums) — started out busking and shaped a tight, groove-forward sound built on nimble basslines, crisp guitar riffs and punchy, syncopated drums. Tracks like Burnt Toast & Coffee, Gossip and Burnin’, plus their take on Herbie Hancock’s Chameleon, sketch out their blend of disco-leaning funk, rock bite and hooky melodies.

On stage, High Fade stretch the trio format with sharp dynamics, quick cuts and elastic sections that leave space for interplay and spontaneous detours. The rhythm section locks into a steady pocket while guitar lines switch from clipped funk to fuzzed-out edges, keeping the floor moving without losing the song. Expect a set that moves from strutting disco-funk to tougher grooves, where breaks, unison hits and call-and-response moments turn the room into a single pulse.

For this stop of the tour, the band weave new material with crowd favorites, focusing on arrangements that hit hard and stay lean — a live show designed for dancing and close-up energy.
