History

Dizzy Mizz Lizzy was founded at Hanssted School in Valby, a suburb of Copenhagen, Denmark in 1988. The three founding members of the band were friends at school. The name was derived from the Beatles cover of the Larry Williams song Dizzy Miss Lizzy. The band entered DM i Rock, which is the Danish Championship in Rock Music in 1991, and despite reaching the final, no record companies wanted to sign the band. The trio entered DM i Rock once again the following year with the same outcome, but in the 1993 DM i Rock, Dizzy Mizz Lizzy won. The grand prize was a recording session for a 4 track EP. This spawned the song Waterline which was a huge hit on DR P3, and subsequently landed the band a record deal with EMI.
