Об исполнителе:
Love Shop was formed in Copenhagen (Denmark) in 1986 and had roots in the 80’s punk, but their releases throughout the 90’s were more pop-rock. They were liked by the music critics but never obtained mainstream popularity. Hilmer Hassig left the band in November 2004 and in 2005 Jens Unmack and Henrik Hall each pursued solo careers releasing critically acclaimed albums. Late 2008 Hilmer Hassig was killed in a traffic accident in Copenhagen, Denmark. In February 2009 Jens and Henrik teamed up with backup musicians to perform at two sold out tribute concerts in honour of Hilmer's memory. At about the same time Love Shop was honoured with a Life Long Contribution To Danish Music Award at the Danish Music Awards. Following years of illness, Henrik Hall succumbed to cancer on January 27, 2011. Love Shop, always a trio, reemerged as a quintet in 2019 with Unmack as the sole surviving original member.
