The Connells are an American musical group from Raleigh, North Carolina. They play a guitar-oriented, melodic, jangle-pop style of rock music with introspective lyrics that often reflect the history or culture of the American South.
Though mostly dormant since about 2001, the band never officially broke up and continues to occasionally perform to the present. The Connells are best known for their song "'74–'75", which was successful across Europe, topping the charts in Sweden and Norway and becoming a UK Top 20 hit in 1995.
