DM Pop Music Awards in 1980
In 1980, Sergeant Cane won the DM Pop Music Awards promoted by the Danish teen magazine Ung Nus, with the songs "Drømmen" (music and lyrics by Leif Kjøgs Hansen and Preben Wolff) and "Varm Nu" (music and lyrics by Knud-Erik Thrane and Henrik Grandt Jakobsen). The original Cane band consisted of Henrik Grandt Jakobsen, Troels Mikaelsen and Knud-Erik Thrane of Lars Viberg (drums) and Leif Kjøgs Hansen (bass and vocals).

Ung nu wrote: "After first winning the local show in Havndal, the pop band CANE from Frederikshavn moved on to victory in the grand finale...", and continued: "With a terrific show and musical grip, the band from North Jutland scored the most points on the contest..."

In 1981, Cane released "Drømmen" as a single with "Varm nu"" on Side B. The record was recorded at the Puk Recording Studios in Randers and got on the air in Jørn Hjortings' radio program, Danskpoppen, on Danmarks Radio.

Sergeant Cane put its career on standby in late 1981.

In 2017, the band restored to its former members and since then has released two new songs.
