A Danish trio whose romantic ballads became radio staples in Asia and Europe during the 1990s.
For their sound, start with 'That's Why (You Go Away).' If you want something from their later catalog, try 'You Took My Heart Away.'
They wrote songs that traveled well. 'That's Why (You Go Away)' and 'Someday' connected with listeners far from Denmark, building a steady following on international radio. Their sound was built for that, clean acoustic arrangements and Jascha Richter's clear tenor delivering straightforward, sentimental themes.
They formed in Aarhus in 1988, naming themselves after a school project analyzing Michael Jackson's 'Beat It.' Their 1991 debut included 'The Actor,' which helped them find an audience outside Denmark. The core trio of Richter, Mikkel Lentz, and Søren Madsen stayed together for decades, recording albums like 'Take Me to Your Heart' in the same melodic pop vein.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
