Career

Peter's debut as a singer was in 1959, for a band called Trefters. In the 1960s, Belli became Denmark's first rock star, alongside his band, Les Rivals, warming up for such greats as The Rolling Stones and The Beatles.

In the 1970s, Belli transitioned to doing more dansktop, having several hits such as Bliv væk fra vort kvarter and Ingen regning. In the same period, he started acting in a number of Danish movies.

In 1981 he had a hit with "Hvis det er sandt" from his same year album "Er det sådan?". It was a Danish version of Billy Joel's You May Be Right.

It wasn't until the late 1980s that Belli returned to his rock roots, having great success with his Yeah album.[1][2]
