Hi Fashion (often stylised as Hi-Fashion) are an American electropop duo, consisting of Jen DM and Rick Gradone. The band’s music features electronic, upbeat pop songs, many with ironic and humorous lyrics. DM and Gradone are both originally from New York but both are now based in Los Angeles. Currently, Hi Fashion has released two Eps, their debut, “Sprechen Sie Hi Fashion?” and 2013 follow up "You Are Gorgeous." Gradone and DM met in a gay bar in New York city where he flirted with DM, thinking she was a man. After this, the pair became friends and DM invited Gradone to a benefit concert, where she was performing. Hearing DM sing, Gradone invited DM to form a band together, which she refused. Gradone then sent DM three tracks to listen to and asked again if she would work with him. DM had plans to start an all-woman metal band but agreed to join with Gradone, and thus Hi Fashion was formed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hi Fashion Electronic Press Kit )〕 Originally, the pair named the band “Hi-Fashion $5.99” and later changed it to “Hi-Fashion $9.99” and eventually dropped the price tag and became known simply as “Hi-Fashion”.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Music Duo Hi-Fashion in High Demand )〕 Hi Fashion’s first single, “Amazing” was released in July 2010, and their debut EP “Sprechen Sie Hi Fashion?” a year later, in July 2011.
