Los Campesinos! breezed onto the Late Show with David Letterman last week, check out their performance below.
‘Hello Sadness’ was a strange beast. Released last year, the third album from Los Campesinos! found the Cardiff based indie troupe coming of age.
Lyrically, the album was more direct and personal than ever before – some feat, given the nature of their previous material. Somehow, ‘Hello Sadness’ has become a sleeper hit, with Los Campesinos! being buoyed by overwhelming critical praise.
Travelling out to the United States recently, the band were invited to perform on Letterman. Far too good an opportunity to turn down, Los Campesinos! breezed onto the Late Show last week and blasted through ‘By Your Hand’.
One of the more explicit songs to receive an airing on Letterman recently, Los Campesinos! stuck around to chat about soccer-ball with ol’ Dave.
Watch ‘By Your Hand’ below…
