Grizzly Bear

Grizzly Bear have been working on a new album for some time now and they’ve finally revealed plans to release it on September 18 via Warp. They haven’t announced the title yet, but the tracklist is out and it includes the new song, “Sleeping Ute.” It’s a great song and reminding me exactly why I like Grizzly Bear. Stream it below, alongside the album’s tracklist.

The band will head out on an international tour in support of the album later this summer and into fall which brings them to their largest hometown show yet on September 24 at Radio City Music Hall. Tickets for that show are not on sale yet but check Ticketmaster for updates.

All dates are listed below, along with the “Sleeping Ute” stream and tracklist…
