A breakthrough on stage
In the mid-1990s, The Reminders took part in the Danish 60s Rock Championships at KB Hallen, where they impressed the judges and secured an impressive second place amongst some 70 participating bands.
Authentic sound and a journey through time
Radio commentator Jørgen de Mylius was introduced to the band and praised them for their authentic 60s sound. When the band takes to the stage, they dust off their old guitars and amplifiers, polish their pointed shoes and don matching Carnaby Street suits – ready for a vivid journey back in time to when The Beatles, The Hollies, The Byrds and The Searchers lit up the 60s night. Their sound is so authentic that you get the feeling of reliving the youth culture of that era – a time when young people left their mark on society.
More about The Reminders
According to their own descriptions, “originality and authenticity are key words when The Reminders perform catchy hits from the 60s”. Their drummer, Christian Grishauge, has been with the band since 1994 and is often praised for his authentic and energetic Sixties Beat Sound.
Band members
Christian Grishauge on drums and vocals – known for the energetic and authentic sound that forms the band’s rhythmic foundation.
Uffe L. Kristensen on guitar and vocals – provides both rhythm guitar and vocal harmonies.
Jan B. Larsen on bass and vocals – sets the beat with crowd-pleasing grooves and backing vocals.
Palle R. Nielsen on electric piano, percussion and vocals – adds extra tone, rhythm and vocal depth to the band’s overall sound.
The Reminders bring back memories of the 60s.
