På Slaget 12

Pop rock group from Aarhus, Denmark. The name of the group was created in January 1985 inspired by the Wilson Pickett song In The Midnight Hour. The band released a demo rather quickly that secured a lot of airplay in Aarhus. Live debut was in April 1985 in Aarhus, and a year later, they were signed to the Danish label Fox Records (3). This resulted in the debut album 2044131 released in October 1986, and the band gained nationwide airplay, especially with the song Hjem Til Århus, which was awarded Europe's best national hit in 1987 by the American magazine Billboard. After extensive touring and a second successful album, the band split up in 1988, because of different opinions about songs and touring. The vocalist Ann-Mette Elten and the guitarist Niels Kirkegaard continue the band with changing musicians around them.
