The best-selling act in Danish history, Shu-bi-dua was co-founded in 1973 by
frontmen Michael Bundesen and Michael Hardinger. Formed in Copenhagen, Denmark,
the group took inspiration from a wide mix of pop, European schlager, and folk
influences, creating a unique sound that also featured humorous lyrics and
radio-friendly melodies. Shu-bi-dua did, indeed, become a staple on Danish radio

and continuing with a run of releases that stretched well into the 21st century.
