Lost and Found Video - The Connells

This Raleigh, North Carolina band worked with such noted producers as Don Dixon and Mitch Easter. Outside of the mid-'80s/early '90s college music scene, The Connells were not well known in the United States, but their song '74-'75 was a top-20 hit across Europe in the mid-'90s.


From the 1987 Connells album Boylan Heights, this is Over There.

It may come as a surprise, but The Connells are still together, and play a handful of shows each year, mostly in the south. Original band members Mike Connell (guitars), David Connell (bass), and Doug MacMillan (vocals) are still in the line-up.

Former drummer John Schultz went on to become a filmmaker.
