Grizzly Bear add a Brooklyn show, sang w/ Victoria Legrand
DOWNLOAD: Grizzly Bear - Cheerleader (MP3)
Grizzly Bear @ Lollapalooza 2008 (more by Zach Dilgard)
Like they've done before, Grizzly Bear added a show at Music Hall of Williamsburg to their previously announced itinerary. The new May 31st Brooklyn date goes on sale Friday at noon (tickets are $26). The other NYC shows are May 28th and 29th at the seated Town Hall in Manhattan. Tickets are still available for both.
The band's new album Veckatimist will be released by Warp Records on May 25th. The first legally available track, "Cheerleader", can be downloaded above. A single for the song "Two Weeks" will be released on May 18th.
Grizzly Bear were also recently confirmed to play the Green Man Festival in the UK (August 21-23), and the Pitchfork Festival (July 17-19). More dates HERE.
Former Grizzly Bear tour-mate, Beach House, are opening for The Walkmen at Webster Hall on April 16th. Beach House's Victoria Legrand makes a guest appearance on Grizzly Bear's Veckatimist - on the song "Two Weeks" actually. At SXSW in March, a festival both bands played, Victoria joined GB on stage to help perform it. Check out the video below...

Think I prefer seeing the Bear at Town Hall, where my fellow concert-goers should tend to be quieter and more attentive.
"While We Wait For The Others" is front-runner for song of the year.

Actually more excited about Here We Go Magic than GB.

Town Hall is the perfect venue for a band like Grizzly Bear. I like Music Hall, but unless it's really difficult for you to get to Manhattan or you're one of those people who like to chat during concerts, I don't see why anyone would prefer seeing them at Music Hall over Town Hall.
