Danish group founded in 1966 by Peter A.G. Nielsen and his brother Jens G. Nielsen. As a psychedelic quartet they released a single in 1969. In 1973 they surfaced again, now a larger group playing more folkish, political rock. After a decade of rock Gnags in the early 80's turned their music towards pop-reggae, having and produce some of their albums. At that time their studio, Feedback, had become very popular and the band and the studio became the epicenter of an 80's pop-wave from the City Aarhus, introducing artists such as and who to a wide degree adapted the pop-reggae sound characterizing Gnags and the Feedback studio. From the early 80's to the mid 90's Gnags was one of the most popular, hit-producing acts in Denmark. The group is still active but only performs and releases rarely. Over the years such key members as Jens G. Nielsen (1974-1996) and Per Chr. Frost (1966-1996) have left the group.
