The band originated in 1963 with two members: Henrik Stanley Møller and Klaus Kjellerup, and they have created music ever since. Their first band from 1972 was named “Shitriders” made up of 7 members playing electric latin music inspired by Getz & Gilberto. It didn’t last long, they split up. They formed another group in 1978, which should be better known in Denmark: “Tøsedrengene” (the wishy-washy-boys). The music was now in reggae style, and the female vocal Anne Dorte Michelsen was later to go solo. Kjellerup left the band and started working as a reporter/journalist - at the same time producing 2 solo records. Stanley joined him in 1989, when a new band was formed: “Klaus Kjellerup Band”, which lead to the present group: “Danser med drenge” in 1990. They made their debut CD in 1993, which to date has sold in over 200.000 copies. The female vocal was Philippa Bulgin. She died of cancer later that year, which dissolved the band. But to honor Philips the band went on composing, and a new female vocal was found in Rie Rasmussen with the rusty voice. The theme of the band is: death, farewell, accident and sorrow - caused by the death of Philippa - and it caused the shadow-name: death-cult. The second CD “Så længe vi er her” was released in 1994 and also sold well. |
