Los The Connells provienen de Carolina del Norte (USA) y tienen un estilo mas introspectivo y melódico. Formados por los gemelos Connells, inspiraron sus primeras letras en los temas de los Beatles y Byrds, para después beber de The Smiths, del rock progresivo de Jethro Tull e imitar hasta un punto inconveniente el estilo de REM. Sin embargo este pequeño defecto de carecer de un estilo definidamente propio, no impidió que sus composiciones estuvieran plagadas de tema de calidad.

This is a beautiful song from a group from my hometown of Raleigh, NC. It is rumored to be about a young boy who fell while riding his bike and landed in a deep ditch. A big rain came and because he broke both of his legs, he could not get up from the ditch and so the young boy drowned.
