Background notes
Archive material and source history
Kambulla Theyns formed in 2012 around singer-songwriter Kambulla Theyns, guitarist Russel Olivier, and drummer Ben Peters. They put out their first album, 'Mutatis Mutandis,' in 2014, which had an Afro-folk, jazz, and soul feel.
Their 2016 album 'Esperança' brought them wider attention, especially the title track. The song 'Esperança' was about resilience but also drew some criticism for how it portrayed poverty and social issues. They followed that with 'Ikhaya' in 2018 and another album called 'The World as We Kno.'
Their songs like 'Esperança,' 'Faço Por Mim,' and 'Wordless' show their range, from anthemic to more personal work. They toured after 'Esperança' and were known for energetic live shows, though some found their views on inequality too political.
