Weekly Feature: Sam Fermin plays SXSW + tours US and Europe

Don’t call it a rock opera. Despite his orchestral composition, lyrics that are a dialogue between characters and a “necessary” song order, Ellis Ludwig-Leone, mastermind behind San Fermin, says their self-titled debut is just, “…a sort-of indie-pop record, that’s thoroughly composed.” The band had a hell of 2013, and it’s ripping the rewards with a two month tour that will take them from the US to Europe, with a single appeareance at SXSW on March 15 at Latitude 30. They’ll be playing the BRIC house in Brooklyn on March 28.
