They met at CBGB’s in the 1970s, traversed the US and the UK with some of their favorite bands, and have now landed themselves at the center of a documentary. They are known simply as Dennis & Lois. These names may ring a bell to fans of The Happy Mondays - the Madchester legends named a song after the couple on their 1990 album Pills ‘n’ Thrills and Bellyaches (listen here). In a new trailer for the documentary, available exclusively via Team Rock, members of The Happy Mondays discuss why Dennis & Lois in particular inspired them and how they played a part in their lives.
