About D-A-D Frankfurt am

Emerging from the vibrant Danish music scene in the early 1980s, D-A-D (Disco-A-D - a name later simplified) have carved out a remarkable and enduring career, solidifying their position as one of Europe’s most celebrated rock acts. Initially adopting a more punk-infused sound, the band quickly evolved, embracing a more melodic, yet no less powerful, hard rock style that would define their signature sound. Their breakthrough came in the late 80s and early 90s with a string of critically acclaimed albums and chart-topping singles that propelled them to international fame.

D-A-D are renowned for their infectious energy, stadium-filling anthems, and a relentless touring schedule that has seen them conquer stages across Europe and beyond. Their live shows are legendary, characterized by a genuine connection with the audience, a palpable sense of camaraderie, and a delivery that is both raw and polished. Frontman Jesper “J.P.” Christensen’s charismatic stage presence, coupled with the razor-sharp guitar work of Jacob “Co.,” the thunderous rhythm section of bassist Stig “G” Pedersen and drummer Laust “L.A.” Sonne, creates a potent and electrifying force.

Among their most beloved and enduring hits are the driving, anthemic “Sleeping My Day Away,” a track that has become a staple of rock radio and a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. The instantly recognisable riff and singalong chorus of “Law of the Jungle” further showcase their knack for crafting memorable rock anthems. For a taste of their more hard-hitting, riff-driven side, tracks like “I Love You” (a surprisingly tender yet powerful ballad) and “Bad Craziness” are essential listening. Their discography is a testament to their consistent quality, with albums like Riskin’ It All, Helpyourself, and Everything Glows housing a wealth of fan favourites. D-A-D’s ability to consistently deliver high-octane performances and write songs that resonate across generations is a testament to their unwavering commitment to the art of rock and roll.
