Laid Back is a Danish electronic music duo group from Copenhagen, formed in 1979. The duo consists of John Guldberg (vocals, guitar, bass) and Tim Stahl (vocals, keyboards, drums, bass). They are best known for the hits "Sunshine Reggae" and "White Horse" from 1983 and "Bakerman" from 1989.

John Guldberg and Tim Stahl met in the mid-1970s, and they played together in a group called the Starbox Band. After a poorly received show supporting the Kinks, the band split up, but the duo continued working together. Guldberg set up a small studio in downtown Copenhagen where the two musicians began exploring the possibilities that were being opened up by new technologies, such as multitrack tape recorders, synthesizers and drum machines.

Their debut album, simply titled Laid Back, was released in 1981, and the single "Maybe I'm Crazy" became a number-one hit in Denmark.

The next year, the single "Sunshine Reggae" was released, and it became another chart-topper in their home country; it was later included on the band's second

The formation of Laid Back, the Denmark-based duo behind the underground dance classic "White Horse," was a happy accident. Tim Stahl and John Guldberg met up at a Danish studio in the late '70s with the intent to be joined by a third party who never arrived. The duo began playing together and kicking ideas around and they eventually decided to form Laid Back. Within a short period of time, Stahl and Guldberg landed a contract on Teldec. Their first single, "Maybe I'm Crazy," was released in 1980, preceding their self-titled debut album released the following year. Two years later, the duo jumped ship to Medley and scored a hit in their homeland and South America with the "Sunshine Reggae" single, released in support of their second album, Keep Smiling. Aiding their success was their uniqueness. Unlike most of the Danish groups of the time, Laid Back's vocals were in English; most significantly, they were dabbling in electronic music with a pop emphasis, which wasn't a common formula at the time.

Laid back. Start

It all started quite by accident. The group members repeatedly repeated the coincidence of circumstances in their numerous interviews. John Gouldberg and Tim Stahl found out about each other in the late 70s of the last century. They were brought together by the unsuccessful project "The Starbox Band". Having performed several times as an opening act for a rock band T, and without gaining popularity, the team fell apart.

But a bad experience prompted John and Tim to create their own musical group. Especially since they had a lot in common. And, first of all, they were united by a love for British pop music. This is how a duo called Laid Back was born, playing electronic pop music.

Successful debut

First of all, a small studio was founded in Copenhagen. The latest technologies were used to record tracks. Experiments in this area led to the release of
