Sam Fermin

With so many great tracks and albums coming out every week, it's sometimes difficult to keep up with all the news.

Lucky for you, we at FILTER love looking through everything to find some great new music amongst everything.

SAN FERMIN

San Fermin, the project by Brooklyn composer and songwriter, Ellis Ludwig-Leone, blends chamber pop music with classical influences. While his incredibly strong voice does well on its own, Ludwig-Leone's impeccable ability to blend the harmonies of multiple vocalists, creating a different variety in his songs, is what makes San Fermin such a treat to listen to.

ISLANDS

Islands band

Todd Weaver

In their latest album, Ski Mask, Islands Nick Thorburn's musical brainchild continues to showcase his talent as a vivid lyricist. The Canadian-turned-Los-Angeles-based band's latest LP focuses on the universal struggle, anger and dejection that comes with the uncertainty of life. A little dark? Yes. A whole lot of truth? Bingo.

MATT POND
