Dizzy Mizz Lizzy was an alternative rock band from Denmark that started in 1988. Between 1994 and 1997, they were highly successful in Denmark and Japan, heading the early 1990s rock revival in Denmark. The trio consisted of Tim Christensen (vocals, guitar, songwriter), Martin Nielsen (bass guitar) and Søren Friis (drums). Christensen would later describe the band's success as: "The Dizzy records were a mild version of what took place in Seattle with a delay of two years, and therefore perfect for Denmark," referring to the grunge movement. Together with bands such as Kashmir they revived rock in Denmark, but lacked an entrance to the UK and US like the modern Danish rock bands do. The group had disbanded in 1998, but went on a reunion tour from 18 March through to 29 September 2010 in Denmark and Japan. After the last show of this tour, they definitely quit. Since 2000, Christensen is also an accomplished solo artist.

Famous quotes containing the word dizzy:
“Surely among a rich man’s flowering lawns,
Amid the rustle of his planted hills,
Life overflows without ambitious pains;
And rains down life until the basin spills,
And mounts more dizzy high the more it rains
As though to choose whatever shape it wills....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
