Grizzly Bear

Spinning on Air | May 18, 2010

With lyrics that abstractly imply shifting personal relationships, and music that's full of angles, shadows, and flashes of color, you might think Grizzly Bear's songs would hardly hold together. But somehow these tenuous elements combine to form songs that are forceful and engrossing. As the Brooklyn-based band Grizzly Bear is about to release their new album, "Veckatimest," they join host David Garland in the WNYC Studio to perform and talk about their new music. This is a rebroadcast of Thursday's live American Music Festival session. Photos from the session
