Grizzly Bear

In this electrifying live performance of 'Speak In Rounds' recorded on October 31, 2012, at Astra in Berlin, Grizzly Bear was riding high on the success of their critically acclaimed album 'Shields,' which had dropped just a month earlier. Released on September 17, 2012, 'Shields' marked a significant evolution in their sound, melding intricate harmonies and experimental textures that had fans buzzing. The band was at a poignant crossroads, as 'Shields' showcased their growth since their previous work, 'Veckatimest,' while also highlighting their unique blend of indie rock and folk influences. This lively concert, infused with atmospheric depth and rich melodies, undoubtedly captured the band's dynamic presence at that moment—both intimate and expansive, just like their music. It’s fascinating to see how this performance encapsulates their journey as artists eager to push creative boundaries while connecting with an energetic audience.
