Grizzly Bear’s Ed Droste: songs that unravel Take 5
-
- Music Interviews
Brooklyn band Grizzly Bear helped shaped the sound of modern indie music. Across their five albums they layered intricate and nuanced guitar music with choirboy vocals and a whole lotta heart.
They broke through in 2006 with their second album, Yellow House, but it was 2009’s Veckatimist which took Grizzly Bear to a whole new plane and became one of the most loved albums of the decade.
To mark its 15th anniversary, I’m throwing back to a brilliant chat I had with frontman and founding member, Ed Droste back in 2018. Ed is a gorgeous human, and I have such fond memories of this conversation. With Grizzly Bear’s layered music in mind, I gave him the theme “songs that unravel.”
Beach House - 'Master of None'
Björk - 'Army of Me'
Pavement - 'Fight This Generation'
Aaliyah - 'One In A Million'
Adele - 'Rolling In The Deep' (Jamie xx Shuffle)
