The Housemartins were an English indie rock group formed in Hull who were active in the 1980s and charted three top-ten albums and six top-twenty singles in the UK. Many of their lyrics conveyed a mixture of socialist politics and Christianity, reflecting the beliefs of the band (the back cover of their debut album, London 0 Hull 4, contained the message, "Take Jesus – Take Marx – Take Hope"). The group's a cappella cover version of "Caravan of Love" (originally by Isley-Jasper-Isley) was a UK Number 1 single in December 1986.

Originari di Hull, cittadina inglese dell'East Riding of Yorkshire, e artefici di un sound che coniugava elementi tipicamente soul con arrangiamenti chitarristici e melodie tipiche della tradizione pop rock britannica, gli Housemartins seppero combinare l'impegno politico-sociale dei loro testi con il gusto spiccatamente pop delle loro composizioni musicali raccogliendo, nell'arco della loro breve vita artistica, un notevole seguito di critica e pubblico sia all'interno del Regno Unito che al di fuori dei confini nazionali.
