Kampec Dolores was founded in 1984 by Csaba Hajnoczy, Gabi Kenderesi and Szini (she used to sing and play guitar, later she changed for electric bass). In the early days they supported Nico in Budapest (1985), played at Eastern Europe's first international alternative festival (Carrot Festival, Warsaw 1987), and were support act for the 12-country revival tour of legendary American band Pere Ubu in Europe (1988). Their first record was initiated by The Ex, who invited Kampec Dolores to record in Amsterdam and released the LP on the Konkurrel label (1988). Kampec Dolores toured in almost all the countries of Europe from Spain to Moscow and from Sweden and Norway to Italy and Yugoslavia (1988/2002). They made their North-American debut at the prestigious Victoriaville Festival in Canada ('99).

Besides founders Csaba Hajnoczy (guitar, sampler) and Gabi Kenderesi (voice, violine) the recent line-up features Arpad Vajdovich (bass) and Tamas Olveczky (drums). Istvan Grencso, outstanding figure of new Hungarian jazz, had been an occasional cooperator with Kampec since 1997, and he is the constant saxophonist since 2000.
