Grizzly Bear (Music) | comment |
GrizzlyBear is an indie folk-rock-baroque pop band based in Brooklyn, New York, mostly known for their sleepy, dreamlike sound and four-part harmonies. The band consists of Edward Droste (lead vocals, guitar/keyboards), Daniel Rossen (lead vocals, lead guitar, piano), Chris Taylor (backing vocals/bass/saxophone/flute/clarinet/whatever), and Christopher Bear (backing vocals/drums/percussion/keyboards).The band originally began as a solo project for Ed Droste in 2004 (with additional help from Chris Bear) with Horn of Plenty. A full band was formed shortly after, culminating in the release of Yellow House (2006). Their next work, Veckatimest (2009), was met with wide critical acclaim, topping several best-of-the-year/decade charts. This praise continued with the release of Shields (2012) and Painted Ruins (2017). | |

Non-Indicative Name: Lampshaded by Stephen Colbert, who described the animal as “[a] godless killing machine” and the band as "not too scary." Another article describes them as “more like otters than bears.” In general, all four members are very shy, polite, and sweet. | |

Odd Friendship: With Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and Solange Knowles, of all people. Jay and Bey were seen at a Grizzly Bear show in 2009, with Jay going as far to proclaim that they were "a serious threat to hip-hop." | |
