San Fermin with Rachael Jenkins
San Fermin songwriter Ellis Ludwig-Leone writes songs that shift seamlessly between joy and dread, panic and euphoria. Since the band's beginnings in 2013, San Fermin's ambitious scope has taken them across a variety of genres, attracting an eclectic group of collaborators that reflect Ludwig-Leone's own wide-ranging musical background.
In celebration of the 10-year anniversary of their seminal second record Jackrabbit, the band is announcing a tour of North America in which they will perform the album front-to-back. Hailed as "gorgeous chamber pop storytelling" (NPR), Jackrabbit has become a touchstone for the band's devoted fan base since its release in 2015.
San Fermin rose to early acclaim on the strength of their self-titled debut, which bandleader Ellis Ludwig-Leone had initially envisioned as a one-off featuring more than 20 collaborators. NPR hailed the album as "one of the year's most surprising, ambitious, evocative and moving records," while Pitchfork called breakout single "Sonsick" "deliriously infectious." Buoyed by the record's success, Ludwig-Leone put together a full-time band and hit the road, performing everywhere from the Tiny Desk to Lollapalooza and sharing bills with the likes of alt-J, Courtney Barnett, the National, and St. Vincent. In the years to come, the group would go on to release four similarly lauded albums, prompting The New Yorker to celebrate their "knack for simultaneously expressing beauty and crisis," and Rolling Stone to declare them "masters of highbrow chamber pop."
