Sade (pronounced shah-day) is an English adult contemporary pop group led by lead singer, guitarist and sole female member Helen Folasade "Sade" Adu. Though Adu's smooth vocals are the heart of the band's sound, the other core members are accomplished musicians as well: Paul Spencer Denman (bass), Andrew Hale (keyboards) and Stuart Matthewman (guitar/saxophone).

History
The band was formed as a side project of the London band Pride, after the addition of Nigerian-born, English-raised Adu. Emerging from an early 80's British trend for R&B-influenced pop music—including Culture Club, The Style Council and Prefab Sprout—Sade have outlasted (and outsold) most of their contemporaries. The 1984 debut, Diamond Life, reached the top ten in both the UK and US, and was followed by sustained, worldwide commercial success. -
