Glades (band)

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 band member Robertson saw on during a holiday in the snow.[3]
