Bolland & Bolland are two Dutch music producers and brothers, Rob Bolland and Ferdi Bolland. They produced and wrote for such artists as Falco (including his Number 1 hit "Rock Me Amadeus"), Samantha Fox ("Love House"), and wrote the Status Quo hit "In the Army Now" - which they released under their own name in 1981 and which was also recorded by Gerard Joling. Their hit singles career started as early as 1972, with "Wait for the Sun" in a folk, a cappella-style following the success of Simon and Garfunkel and their Dutch equivalents Greenfield and Cook. When, in 1976, their success started to wane, they turned towards a more electronic sound, an early example of which can be heard in "Spaceman", a 1978 hit in the Netherlands.
Outside the Netherlands, they shortened their name to Bolland and established their name internationally with the release of the concept album The Domino Theory. The edgy, tuneful album is a critical look at war and US intervention in foreign conflicts from the viewpoint of the foot soldier. It contains the single "In the Army Now", which reached number 1 in Norway and held the top spot for six consecutive weeks. In South Africa, the single peaked at number 9 in May 1982, boosted by increased conscription due to the South African Border War. Francis Rossi, lead singer of Status Quo, is widely quoted as having heard the song while on the Autobahn in Germany. He eventually persuaded Quo to record it, and the single reached number 2 in the UK in 1986.
In 1984 they released the album Silent Partners. The biggest hit from this album was called "Ten American Girls". Subsequent albums followed through the 1990s. In 1997, the Bolland brothers wrote, produced and played an album under the moniker Daniella's Daze, on the heavy metal label, Roadrunner Records. The electronic rock album was called Slut and featured an uncredited female singer. The only single, "100% Jesus", received good radio airplay in Australia, but no further CDs were released by the collective.
