The Rembrandts are an American alternative rock duo, formed by Danny Wilde and Phil Solem in 1989.

[11] Wilde was a member of 1970s cult recording act The Quick,[10] and had released several mildly successful solo albums in the 1980s.

Wilde and Solem had been in the power-pop quartet Great Buildings, a band that released one album for CBS in 1981 before dissolving.

In 1997, the duo split, with Solem returning to Minneapolis to concentrate on his band Thrush.

[10] In 2000, Solem and Wilde reunited, and released the album Lost Together as The Rembrandts the following year.

In 2006, Rhino Records released a collection called Greatest Hits, a 20-song career-spanning retrospective that included material from the lone Great Buildings album, Apart from the Crowd.

Phil Solem in 1995, said "We don't want to hang our hats on the theme from a TV show...[w]e've been working too long at our craft for that.
