Thomas Helmig Brothers

About

The band of Thomas Helmig for his 2nd and 3rd albums in 1986 and 1987. Several members, Claes Antonsen, Uffe Fink Isaksen and Palle Torp had played with Helmig in their highschool band Elevatordrengene as well as backed him on his 1985 first solo album. The members quickly came in demand as session and live musicians and became the backbone in many acts out of Aarhus of the era. Claes Antonsen would become a very sought after session drummer, member of Henning Stærk Band and later a television big band leader with The Antonelli Orchestra. Palle Torp also played in Henning Stærk Band and later formed Sko/Torp. Simon West joined Ray Dee Ohh and later Danser med Drenge.
