På Slaget 12 is a Danish pop and rock band built around singer Ann-Mette Elten and guitarist Niels Kirkegaard, who have been performing together since their debut album in 1986. The song 'Hjem til Århus' from that first record became an instant classic, and the band has since released 13 albums with combined sales exceeding one million copies.
Ann-Mette Elten announced in May 2026 to Billed-Bladet that På Slaget 12 will stop touring after the 40-year anniversary tour - neither as a band nor as a soloist.
In 2026, the band marks its 40-year anniversary with a final tour, where the anniversary concerts feature highlights from the entire career.
The band plays in 2026 including in Herning (24 October) and Bramming (31 October) as part of the anniversary tour.
In 2015, På Slaget 12 released the album 'Hjerterne Fri' - the band's first album with newly written Danish-language songs in 18 years.
