Glades are an Australian electronica indie pop band composed of vocalist/guitarist Karina Savage and multi-instrumentalist producers Cameron Robertson and Joseph Wenceslao. The trio met at William Clarke College in Kellyville, New South Wales and formed Glades in 2015.[1][2] The band's name comes from a ski run that band member Robertson saw during a holiday in the snow.[3]

Career

[edit]

In 2015, the band uploaded a cover of fellow Australian Troye Sivan's "Fools" on SoundCloud and received an early endorsement from Sivan himself.[4]

The band signed to EMI Australia in 2016 and in October, following the success of their breakthrough single "Drive", which has since accumulated 40 million streams, released their debut EP, This is What It's Like.

In November 2018, following the success of their biggest hit, "Do Right", which has since accumulated 60 million streams, the band released their debut studio album, To Love You.[5]

In 2018, Glades embarked on their To Love You Tour, which began in Melbourne on November 24 and concluded in Brisbane on December 7.[6]

Their second studio album, Planetarium was released on 30 April 2021.

On 28 July 2023, Glades released "Goodbyes", their first single in two years.[7]
