LAID BACK concert SUNSHINE REGGAE

The Nineties & Noughties In 1990, Laid Back had a comeback with the song "Bakerman", which became a big hit with it's unique and simple style. It is known for the skydiver video by the world-known Danish film director Lars von Trier. In 2001, Laid Back composed the music score for the Danish movie “Flyvende Farmor”, for which they received a Robert (the Danish Oscar Award). That same year, they also showed a new artistic side when a successful Laid Back exhibition of paintings took place in Copenhagen. In 2004, Laid Back performed at the hip festival on the Isle of Wight, UK, and in 2005 they played at the famous open air stage of the Copenhagen Tivoli Gardens and the equally prestigious Roskilde Festival. The album “Happy Dreamer” came in 2005, propelling especially its single “Beautiful Day” to great feedback. This also due to a co-operation with noted DJ / Producer Trentemøller doing a remix of the track. Laid Back for the first time began to come up with art video clips to fit their music, along with a free rein in using own imaginative graphics and visuals all drawn by John Guldberg. The Twentytens In 2010, "Cocaine Cool" was the first single to be released on Laid Back's own label, Brother Music. It was followed by the mini album “Cosyland” and the instrumental album “Cosmic Vibes” in 2012. Since the very beginning, Laid Back has maintained their unique ability to sound exactly like themselves, while constantly navigating towards new sonic territories. If you ask Tim and John how a specific song was made, the answer almost always is: "We jammed our way into it". That was also the case with the double album "Uptimistic Music", which they released in 2013. In this period, Laid Back also opened the door to more external input. Especially to younger creative forces, where sound engineer Bjørn Winnem, producer Andreas 'Maskinen' Sommer and singer Red Baron are important contributors. In 2019, Laid Back received the prestigious Danish award "Pioneer of the Year" (Årets Steppeulv) for their many years of contribution to the international music scene. 2019 was a special year for Laid Back marking 40 years of making music in the same studio in Copenhagen, the studio where it all began. Laid Back celebrated their anniversary by releasing their 12th studio album "Healing Feeling". The Twentytwenties Laid Back is still going strong after more than 40 years of working together. 2023 marks the year of a new 21 track studio album, 'Road To Fame’. And in 2024 they released a new album “FOREVERGREEN" with a selection of favourite songs as Laid Back covers. As for concerts, Laid Back is touring worldwide at cherry picked sunny locations and concert halls with their two-man electronic set up and selected festivals with the band.
