Samoans are a band from Cardiff, South Wales, although none of the members originate from the city itself. Since forming in 2008 the band have established themselves as one of the city's up and coming talents, creating a collection of intricate, yet melodic songs, drawing influence from bands such as Reuben, Maps & Atlases and Secondsmile. They have worked relentlessly, gradually building up a dedicated following with their distinctive style of progressive math-rock. Live shows are notorious for their energy, fretboard mastery and exhaustive drumming.
