Throughout their career, Cugini di Campagna has experienced various lineup changes while continuing to release music and maintain a loyal fan base. Their work embraces a rich infusion of romantic lyrics and catchy melodies, an aspect that remains consistent even in their most recent releases such as "Lettera 22" and the Italian anthem reimagined, "Fratelli d'Italia." The band has also delved into reinterpretations and remixes, evident in tracks like "Lettera 22 (Remix)" and "Il ballo di patsy (Dj Alin Vs. Cugini Di Campagna)." Despite the evolution of musical trends, Cugini di Campagna has sustained a beloved legacy within Italian pop culture, marked by a discography that encapsulates the nostalgic charm of past decades while engaging with contemporary sounds.
