The soulful duo Samson For President returns with “Hurricanes”, the lead single from their brand-new album FUEGO—a record that fuses soul, gospel, Latin American rhythms, and Nordic melancholy into something both deeply personal and universally moving.
“Hurricanes” stands out as one of the album’s more stripped-down and acoustic offerings, weaving together singer Martin Bejarano Wahlgren’s Colombian roots with drummer Patrick Lundin’s groove-driven sensibilities. The result is a track that feels organic and raw, yet sophisticated in its emotional delivery—like a storm that’s as cleansing as it is powerful.
Though the duo has long flown under the radar, their dedication to craft has not gone unnoticed. In recent years, they’ve gained international recognition, drawing praise from outlets such as Rolling Stone Magazine, Los Angeles Wire, and NY Weekly. That growing attention is no accident—“Hurricanes” and the wider album FUEGO showcase a unique blend of cultures, influences, and heartfelt storytelling that feels as fresh as it does timeless.
With this release, Samson For President prove that while they may not yet have the largest audience, their music is already resonating far beyond borders—soulful, honest, and impossible to ignore.
