Background notes
Archive material and source history
Os Campesinos formed in Cardiff in 2006, a group of university friends who started with a DIY approach. They self-released their debut album 'Hold on Now, Youngster...' in 2008. The band's sound has shifted over time, from the raw energy of that first record to the more introspective feel of 'Metendo O Pé Na Jaca' in 2013.
Their lyrics often touch on politics and personal relationships with a direct, sometimes witty tone. The original lineup included Gareth David on vocals and guitar, Ellen Waddell on vocals and trumpet, and several others who shared the Campesinos surname. They've put out seven studio albums, with 'Show Me How to Live' arriving in 2021.
