Early life

[8] Capaldi is of Scottish, Irish and Italian ancestry. [9] He is the youngest of four children. His mother becoming pregnant with Lewis came as a surprise to his family, being called a sort of "immaculate conception", because his father had had a vasectomy. [10] Capaldi's passion for performing started after he sang on stage at the age of 4 on a family trip in France. [11] He learned how to play guitar when he was nine. [12] Soon, he began writing songs, and playing gigs by sneaking into pubs with the help of his eldest brother. [13]
