Grizzly Bear to headline the Roundhouse

The fantastic Grizzly Bear will continue their current run of success with their largest London headline show to date next March at the Roundhouse.

Grizzly Bear released Yellow House in 2006. It was a slow, steady and stunning ride—boundless in scope and elegance. Given the album's otherworldly charm and staying power, it's hard to believe three years have gone by. There is an unbelievable clarity of sound and vision to new album Veckatimest: vocals (a duty now shared by all band members) are sharper and more complex, arrangements are tighter, production is more venturous and lyrics more affecting. Having opened the creative dialogue at such an early stage, Grizzly Bear was able to realize these 12 songs together as a band, making it their most collaboratively compositional album to date.

This yielded an unexpected mix of material that feels more confident, mature, focused—and most of all, dynamic. Veckatimest is an album of the highest highs and lowest lows—an unbelievably diverse collection of songs that celebrates the strength of each band member, and the power of the whole. It was well worth the wait.

A Special Edition of Veckatimest will be released on November 2nd on Warp Records, adding 7 live session tracks and a photobooklet to this acclaimed album.

Tickets for this special show taking place on Saturday 13th March 2010 are priced at £18.50 + booking fee and go on sale this Friday 16th October at 10am from www.atpfestival.com
