Gitkin - Saint Claude Dash / Chica Nola

Dead Horse Beats is the stage name of Canadian musician, composer and singer Patrick Wade. Described as "a groovy treasure packed with the excitement and emotion of a danceclub makeout session" by Noisey; Wade's releases with labels in Montreal, New York and London span moods and styles from eccentric trip-hop to pensive R&B and rattling disco tinged dance numbers. As a performer and DJ, Wade has entertained tens of thousands at festivals including MUTEK, Canadian Music Week, Igloofest, and Halifax Pop Explosion and shared the stage with the the likes of Breakbot, FKJ, Tokimonsta, RJD2, and Charlotte Day Wilson. As well as a producer and songwriter, Wade's resume as a composer for film and video includes award winning projects with the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, Ubisoft, Landr and Destination Canada, as well as screenings at Cannes, the National Geographic Film Festival and many other festivals. Wade's next album Inglaterra is scheduled for an April 2019 release with Bastard Jazz Recordings. 'Inglaterra', a ten song LP crafted over two years in the 28 year old\ producer's Montreal studio, is a continuation of the Left-Field and R&B influenced Soul of 2016's 'Bad Hopes'. The Spanish word for England; 'Inglaterra' explores the concept of a rainy vacation through deep, spacey grooves complimenting typically pessimistic but vulnerable lyrics. Guest appearances from LA singer Low Leaf on vocals and harp, frequent collaborator Francis Arseneau on keyboards, and New York based saxophonist Jarryd Torff add soulful expression to DHB's infectious, jazzy hooks.
