On tour with his first band Supergroove in the 1990s, Che befriended DLT (Upper Hutt Posse/Joint Force), as Joint Force were supporting them. After Che left Supergroove, DLT asked him to do some vocals for the song ‘Chains’ (from DLT’s 1996 album The True School). ‘Chains’ was a massive hit, and set Che Fu on his solo career path.
‘Fade Away’ was the first single from Che Fu’s second album The Navigator, and it marked the debut of his new band, The Krates. The video tells the song’s story of undying friendship in a World War II setting, and was filmed at the NZ Warbirds Association hangar at Ardmore Airport.
