The Coronas are a Meteor Award winning Irish four-piece Rock-Indie-Alternative band from Dublin.
Their debut album - 2007's Heroes or Ghosts - achieved platinum sales in Ireland, and spawned massive singles such as "Grace, Don't Wait!", "Heroes or Ghosts" and especially "San Diego Song" which became an anthem in clubs and radio stations all across the country.
The Dublin quartet quickly followed its release with sell-out shows nationwide, two meteor award nominations and a spellbinding set on the main stage at Oxegen. All this along with tours in the U.S., UK and Asia, has enabled the Coronas to establish themselves as one of Irelands biggest bands.
'Tony Was An Ex-Con' is the second album from The Coronas. The album was released in Ireland in September 2009, and went straight into the number 1 spot in the Irish i-Tunes Album chart upon its release. The following week it also debuted at number 3 in the Irish Album Charts, and the album also won the 2010 Meteor Award for Best Album beating U2 and Snow Patrol.
The Coronas have played numerous sold-out shows throughout 2009 and 2010, including performances at The olypmia, Oxegen, Indiependence Festival, The Isle Of Man Bay Festival, and they also opened for Paul McCartney in the RDS in June 2010.
