Dollie de Luxe

The Profile

Dollie de Luxe is a Norwegian pop duo formed by Benedicte Adrian and Ingrid Bjornov, known for their 1980s theatrical crossover work including the album Rock vs. Opera and the musical Which Witch.

They represented Norway at Eurovision 1984 with "Lenge Leve Livet" (placing 17th). Their album Rock vs. Opera includes large-scale rock/classical crossover arrangements; the single "Satisfaction" reached the top 20 in France. Which Witch premiered in Bergen in 1987 and later ran in London (Piccadilly Theatre).

The reviews describe Dollie de Luxe's theatrical, grandiose 1980s aesthetic and their Eurovision 1984 appearance with "Lenge Leve Livet" (17th). They pivoted from schlager to an ambitious rock-opera hybrid (Rock vs. Opera) and created the musical Which Witch, which ran in Bergen and had a London run. The album's bold Beatles-suite and crossover arrangements divided critics but gained cult appreciation.
