Royal Hunt is a melodic progressive metal group from Copenhagen, Denmark, formed in 1989. Their strength lies in the songwriting skills of the band chief André Andersen who plays the keyboards and occasionally other instruments (on the debut album he also handled the guitars.)

So far the band has released 9 studio albums, 2 official live albums, 5 EPs. The debut, Land of the Broken Hearts, came in 1992, and the newest one, Collision Course - Paradox II, in 2008.

Royal Hunt’s line-up has changed many times during the years. Most notable thing being that they have had four different vocalists: Henrik Brockmann(who later joined Evil Masquerade) on the first two albums, D.C. Cooper (Silent Force etc.) on the next two and John West (Artension) who came in 1999 and has stayed in the band until March, 17th, 2007. On December, 13th, 2007, the band announced Mark Boals to be the new vocalist for Royal Hunt.

The current line-up is:
André Andersen - keyboards
Mark Boals - vocals
Allan Sørensen - drums
Marcus Jidell - guitars
Per Schelander - bass

During the recent 2008 tour RH had Magnus Ulfstedt on the drums and Mats Levén on vocals on 3 shows.
