Artist Spotlight: San Fermin

Starting off your snowy Thursday with a brand new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we head off to Brooklyn, NY and come into contact with the lovely indie rock sounds of San Fermin. The group consists of Allen Tate on vocals, Rae Cassidy on vocals, Rebekah Durham on vocals and violin, John Brandon on trumpet, Stephen Chen on saxophone, Ellis Ludwig-Leone on keyboard, Tyler McDiarmid on guitar, and Mike Hanf on drums. The band's music is a baroque indie-pop hybrid with a dynamic synapse of beautiful vocals and ambient instrumentation running amok throughout the musical wavelengths that provides for a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience. These guys played a show this past Monday at Brighton Music Hall with Friendly People opening up for them (another past Artist Spotlight alumni) and while I was unable to attend, I know they were in good hands with what I'm sure was a strong crowd dedicated to experiencing the highest quality music out there, and a band from what I've heard has a strong musical aesthetic to them that is entirely unique and has a certain unbridled musical chemistry that is just plain infectious. A terrific upstart band deserving of some love from here in the New England area. Some tracks to discover from the group include "Sonsick" and "Daedalus (What We Have)".
