The Connells

Headshot of The Connells

Brothers Mike and David Connell make up the backbone of this alternative pop group, which formed in Raleigh, North Carolina. After a European LP and subsequent videos started making waves in the U.S., exploding with 1987’s Boylan Heights album. A series of albums followed, each breaking new artistic (and commercial) ground. The 1990 track “Stone Cold Yesterday” reached #3 on Billboard’s Modern Rock Tracks chart. Though the band has gone through some minor line-up changes and the occasional hiatus, they continue to deliver inspired music to alternative rock fans.
