Grizzly Bear played their second gig at The Corner last night and if I had to sum up the experience in two words it would be “lush harmonies”. The Brooklyn boys sync perfectly not only in vocals but instrumentally too. You seriously cannot faulter any of their abilities as musicians. This was 2010 indie music at its very best and a great way to start the gigging year. My highlights were Colorado, Two Weeks and Foreground but I don’t think any fan left unhappy. The setlist was slightly different to the first nights show.

SETLIST:

  1. Southern Point
  2. Cheerleader
  3. Lullabye
  4. Knife Play
  5. Deep Blue Sea
  6. Fine For Now
  7. Two Weeks
  8. Colorado
  9. Shift
  10. Ready, Able
  11. I Live With You
  12. Foreground
  13. While You Wait For The Others
  14. On A Neck, On A Spit

    15. Encore:

  15. Fix It

There are fan videos and then there are fan videos. And then there are videos which are so damn good, they surpass fan video status and enter the realms of “Holy crap! If this guy doesn’t do their next video, the band are plain crazy!”. Gabe Askew posted his love of Grizzly Bear with a beautiful piece of work that has been floating around the Interwebs over the past few weeks. Even Ed Droste from the band Twittered it so they know all about Gabe and his excellent work. However their official video for ‘Two Weeks’ is also stunning but here’s hoping a future collaboration is a possibility. And the more blogging people do about Gabe’s work, the more possibilities there are :)

P.S – The band should also be touring around the end of the year for the Falls Festival but no sideshows have been announced yet so look out for show announcements soon!
