Grizzly Bear [Live]

Grizzly Bear consists of Ed Droste (singer/songwriter), Christopher Bear (drummer), Chris Tayler (woodwinds player/bassist) and Daniel Rossen (singer/songwriter/guitarist). They’ve had a steady rise and growing buzz since their 2006 release of Yellow House. Since then, they’ve toured extensively, supported Radiohead, TV On The Radio, and Feist, played with the L.A. Philharmonic and recently released a new album, Veckatimest. The new album is beautiful with sharp and complex vocals, incredible lyrcs and very tight arrangements. I hadn’t seen Grizzl bear for more than a year and was wondering how their wonderful flourishes and subtle sounds would translate to a large festival with an audience of thousands. a couple years earlier they had a fantastic set at PMF and I had hopes they could repeat. Despite some sound issues that apparently were too irritating to the band to ignore, the set was wonderfu and crisp.
