Tøsedrengene

Tøsedrengene was a Danish band that existed from 1978 to 1986,[1] notable for their mix of pop-rock and reggae with Danish-language lyrics.[2] During their active years, they achieved great success in Denmark, their six studio albums selling more than a million copies.[3] The name translates to "The sissy boys", which is a parodic reference to the 70's anti masculine climate in Denmark.
