grizzly bear/



l// I was lucky enough to catch Grizzly Bear on the first night of three 'Serpenine Sessions' nights in Hyde Park London. It is a relatively new festival that has had the likes of Bon Iver and Regina Spektor last year. This year the main features are, Grizzly Bear (monday night), Patti Smith (last night) and on thursday you can catch Laura Marling. The setting is beautiful and somewhat intimate, I was a little surprised that we were in a tent in the park... seemed like a shame to not be able to watch the fading light and enjoy the music. Grizzly bear did not disappoint, spectacular music filled the gardens... wonder whether the gardeners notice more growth in the gardens when the festival is on? Good good night. Don't you love the album artwork? Art by William O'Brien.
