The Deejays was a British R&B group whose history began in the late 1950s. However, after a few years' inactivity in the UK, The Deejays' recording career finally kicked off in 1963 in Sweden, as a result of a band interchange, which was practiced between England and the Scandinavian countries. The man who made this trade possible was Swe-Disc Record Company's Roland Ferneborg, whose group The Spotnicks had just finished a tour of England. The Deejays signed with Swe-Disc, and recorded five singles and an album between 1963-1965, with a leaning more towards pop than their traditional R&B style.
