ActiveAbout
The Mudmen formed in Alvinston/Petrolia, Ontario in 1998 by Zoy Nicoles and brothers Sandy Campbell and Robby Campbell. First discovered as "The Campbell Brothers," they signed a record deal with EMI Records and changed their name to "Mudmen" in the late 90s. The band's name comes from the Campbell Brothers' occupation prior to forming the band—they were mixing mortar and carrying bricks for bricklayers. The band's music is influenced by traditional Scottish music as well as hard rock groups such as AC/DC. They are best known for their singles "5 O'Clock," "Saturday," and "Drink and Fight" as well as their covers. Their single "Lost" was featured in a promotional video for NBC's "The Black Donnelly's." Career highlights include meeting and performing for the Queen, performing at the 84 Edmonton Oilers Stanley Cup reunion, and performing at 7 Grey Cups, 3 Memorial Cups, and 12 Canada's Walk of Fame Ceremonies. Mudmen have opened for many well-known bands including ZZ Top, Tool, Dropkick Murphys and Bowling for Soup, as well as fellow Canadians Nickelback, Sum 41 and The Guess Who. The Mudmen released 9 studio albums. The Campbell Brothers have performed over 3000 shows to date, and the Mudmen continue to perform together.
