Release Notes:
Raised on cashews and cocktails in Boston by an elementary school music teacher,
Edward Droste grew up surrounded by music, prompting him to take up various
instruments and write his own songs at an early age. After years of singing in
circles, he discovered the joys of home recording and proceeded to use whatever
he could get his hands on to make new sounds, capturing it all on a small hand
held tape recorder.
During a long fifteen-month hibernation in his cozy Greenpoint, Brooklyn
bedroom, Droste laid the groundwork for Grizzly Bear's first album. Upon
completion of this "demo," Droste enlisted the help of Christopher Bear (last
name entirely coincidental), who breathed new life and sounds to the work.
Hailing from Chicago, Bear has worked in various musical projects ranging from
laptop shenanigans to free jazz. He has provided a vast technical knowledge, a
certain sonic polishing, as well as additional instruments and vocals to the
initially primitive recordings.
The result, Grizzly Bear's debut album titled "Horn of Plenty" is a nostalgic
amalgamation of found sounds and layered vocals bound to thrill followers of
Animal Collective, Sufjan Stevens, and Nick Drake. It represents the combined
influences of Bear's affinity for older classics such as Tyrannosaurus Rex and
Arthur Russell mixed with Droste's more contemporary tastes.
Grizzly Bear's music started out as a pet project of Droste's meant only for
friends, but it has taken on a life of its own, circulating widely. In the past
year, Grizzly Bear has been spreading their gospel as a live act all over the
country with the additions of Chris Taylor and Daniel Rossen to the group.
Playing reeds and electronics, Taylor's talents have lured Grizzly Bear out of
hibernation and into the world as a living, breathing animal. Mr. Rossen, on the
other hand, has enriched the group with his new compositions and thrashing
solos. Since the nationwide tour, both have become key members of the group,
working steadily on new material for the next album. With four voices, guitar,
clarinet, percussion, and colorful effects, Grizzly Bear's live sound maintains
the dreamy, subdued qualities of "Horn of Plenty", yet explores a more electric
and psychedelic path, leading to a dynamic and mesmerizing concert experience.
Currently, Grizzly Bear is adding the finishing touches to a full fledged remix
project. Scheduled to be released domestically and internationally on its one
year anniversary in early November, "Horn of Plenty" will feature an additional
disc of remixes by Tim Sweeny of DFA, Castanets, Soft Pink Truth, Ariel Pink,
The Double, Efterklang, Hisham Bharrocha, Simon Bookish, Solex, and more. In the
coming months, Grizzly Bear will begin recording their new full-length album.
While still fully maintaining the intimacy of Droste's bedroom duets with Bear,
the sounds of Taylor and Rossen will hardly resemble the modest pop beginnings
of "Horn of Plenty".
