High Fade Bring the Funk-Rock Fury on “Twice As Nice”

High Fade Band with Twice as Nice Album Cover

The dynamic funk-rock trio High Fade has returned with their second album, Twice As Nice, which captures their continuing evolution from “viral busking phenomenon into an international force.” The band has been touring hard for the past two years and the music shows.

“With Twice As Nice, High Fade push their sound further than ever before, channeling the chaos, intensity, and unpredictability of life on the road into a genre-defying record packed with filthy funk grooves, riff-heavy rock, disco swagger, and full-throttle heaviness,” a press release states.

High Fade features bassist Oliver Sentance, whose nimble fingers and muscular tone drive the fury. Check out his style on the new album with this video for “Swamp”:

Sentance also gave fans a sneak peak of the gear he used to record Twice As Nice.

Twice As Nice is available now on Apple Music, Amazon Music, and other platforms. High Fade will be on tour in the U.S. and Canada from May 13th through July 26th. See below for the full itinerary.
