HIGHASAKITE
Norway’s Highasakite make pop music, but an adventurous brand full of contrasts – combining Ingrid Helene Håvik’s surrealistic lyrics and ardent vocals with a dynamic mix of synthesizers and percussion. Highasakite have gone from strength-to-strength since releasing breakthrough LP of 2014 ‘Silent Treatment', which spent more than two years in the Top 40 Chart and broke the record for longest consecutive run in Norwegian chart history.
Follow-up LP ‘Camp Echo’ (2016) enjoyed continued chart success – #1 debut on Norwegian Top 40 and repeat #1 airplay on national radio with singles ‘Golden Ticket’ and ‘Someone Who’ll Get It’ – and signaled a busy live schedule including main stage headlines at Norway's five biggest festivals; Glastonbury, Latitude (UK), Hurricane (DE), Roskilde (DK) and Field Day (AUS); and sold out venues spanning the UK, US and Australia. In 2017, Håvik teamed up with pop-production powerhouse STARGATE (Beyonce, Rihanna, Sia, P!nk) for standalone single ‘5 Million Miles’, and also made her US television debut with a special guest performance on Conan O’Brien’s late-night show.
Since then the has released the album Uranium Heart, as well as the mini album The Bare Romantic. They’ve sold out Oslo Spectrum and been on a full out Norwegian arena tour.
