Henry Fong, Bad Royale
Liquid 624 University Ave., Madison, Wisconsin 53715
A seemingly unlikely duo of groove-masters teams up deliver a night jam-packed with jams. The two electronic acts share a genre, kind of, and a base of operations in Los Angeles, but that’s pretty much it. Henry Fong’s (pictured) dance music is positively laced with dancehall and grander Caribbean influences. Bad Royale’s resembles the music heard more often at Liquid, bringing funk to a tried-and-true nucleus of build-ups and drops. The contrast between the two styles will be a refreshing treat.
press release:
“We are super excited to start this tour! Henry has been a good homie for awhile now and our musical styles really bounce off each other so you know these shows are going to be pumped full of energy. As for something musically in the works together... just keep your ears to the floor.....” - Bad Royale
“I’m really stoked to go on tour with the Bad Royale guys this summer! I’ve been friends with them each individually now for a few years from living down in Orange County, and it’s cool to go on tour with guys you really vibe with. I feel like our sounds compliment each other and the whole tour is going to have a crazy energetic island vibe. We’ve also been messing around in the studio so I wouldn’t be surprised if we got some brand new tracks together on the road.” - Henry Fong
