‘No Connection’ marks the triumphant return of the London-based New Wave/Post-Punk band, originally formed in 1977. After disbanding in the early 80s, lead singer Chas Hines had moved away from the scene that once celebrated her as one of the only black, British, female frontwomen in original Punk. But in 2020, a forgotten acetate demo from her collection was rediscovered, sparking Flashback Records to release the previously unheard track ‘Poser’. This reignited Hines’ passion, leading to the revival of Bona Rays and a revamped line-up back on stage through 2024/5 with a whole new set of punchy songs.
‘No Connection’ is the first all-new track to emerge from this exciting fresh chapter, fusing fiery energy and sharp riffs to launch a bold Post-Punk sound into the 2020s.
