Herreys, also called Herrey's or Herrey, is a Swedish trio composed of the 3 brothers Per, Richard and Louis Herrey. Trio who began his artistic career in a sensational way, since they simply won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1984 with the enormous title "Diggi-Loo Diggi-Ley".
A victory that will mark the history of the competition since Richard and Louis will be the youngest male singers to have won the title, one aged 19 and the other aged 17.
A victory and above all a huge success that they will not be able to reproduce later despite the release of other titles in the years that will unfortunately follow...

Clips :
1981...a first title not devoid of interest and which shows that this trio has potential. It remains to be seen what he will do with this potential...
1981...especially since they show a most interesting versatility of style right from the start. Rather good omen for the rest of the events all this...
1983...we find them two years later again in Intimist mode and the result is up to par as before. While waiting for the big take-off which has still not taken place...
1983... the tempo accelerates in a brutal way on this new title. Not sure that overspeeding is the best way to reach the masses as they say...
1984...we will have to wait another year and the year 1984 to see them finally reap the fruits of their efforts. It won't be for now but it won't be long...
1984...even if the fame of the trio still does not exceed the framework of their natural borders, they still begin to make a name for themselves in their native land...
1984...it is clear that singing in Swedish will not help for a breakthrough at the International. But it could be that the title to follow solves the problem in a masterful way...
1984...it's THIS title that will change everything, starting with a magnificent victory in the Eurovision Song Contest that year. And who says victory at Eurovision says huge success in the Charts behind !
1985...we find them the following year in luxury cover mode with this revisited version of Sandy Marton's title dating from the previous year. A copy that will not bring much more than the original...
1985... the trio will not be able to surf on the enormous success encountered with their victory at Eurovision and the rest will prove to be a little more complicated to manage than expected...
1985...and yet they are far from unworthy, that's clear. But they will never be able to find the same level of success as that encountered during the year 1984...
1985... that won't stop them from continuing the adventure no matter what. Because they know very well that in music everything is always possible...
1985 ... even if they will stay in history mainly for their victory at Eurovision, they have nothing to be ashamed of all that they will have produced next, that's for sure ...
1985 ... it must be said that on certain titles we sometimes border on caricature. After the so-called 'Popular' register has allowed more than one to have a particularly successful career...
1986...an adventure that will have a hard time going further than the 80s. But what is taken is no longer to be taken, as they say...
1986...they won't have been ridiculous from start to finish and that's the main thing. A trio in the typical style of this blessed decade and which he will have fully assumed until the end...
1986... we will have been largely satisfied with all that they could have produced in any case. Not everyone can finish No.1 in the Charts, that's for sure...
1986...they will have won their biggest success in fast tempo mode but they will also have really excelled in much softer tempos. The proof with this title !
1987... once again the proof with this other title. It is clear that they would surely have deserved a little more recognition than it was...
1995...they will try to move on to the 90s but that will not give anything very concrete. Especially since they will sing again in Swedish, this probably explains that...
