Background notes

Archive material and source history

Los Campesinos! formed in Cardiff around 2006, with Gareth Paisey, Aleksandra Campana, and Tom Bromley among the original members. Their early work had a scrappy, energetic feel, with songs like 'Romance is Boring' and 'Avocado, Baby' capturing a specific kind of anxious, literate indie rock. They put out albums fairly regularly through the 2000s and 2010s, including 'Hold on Now, Youngster...' in 2008 and 'Sick Scenes' in 2013.

A track like 'The Sea Is A Good Place To Think Of The Future' shows their tendency toward longer, more narrative-driven songs, while 'O Frio Da Serra' from their second album leans into a more atmospheric, melancholic sound. The band's lineup shifted over time, but Paisey's distinctive vocal delivery remained a constant. They released another album, 'Y Wyddfa', in 2023.
