Location: The Englert Theatre

Part of Mission Creek Festival

Grizzly Bear has been described by Rolling Stone as “one of indie rock's most sophisticated songwriting teams.” The Brooklyn-based quartet has released four albums in its 11-year history, performing in venues as diverse as the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Lollapalooza music festival, and Radio City Music Hall. Grizzly Bear’s latest release, 2012’s Shields, is the band’s most fluid album to date. As one Pitchfork review of the album states, Shields combines “baroque, detail-rich production” and an “emotionally resonant core” to create one of the most eloquent indie rock albums of recent history.
