In addition to Defend Music Night , the event taking place across ten venues on Friday, organized to raise awareness about The Cleveland Music Club Coalition's ongoing negotiations with the city to alter their 8% admissions tax, there are two big release shows also happening this weekend. On Friday night, Cleveland singer-songwriter, and legend to many in the scene, Bill Fox will be playing selections from his latest CD, One Thought Revealed at The Happy Dog . Herzog will headline. And on Saturday, Cleveland's finest indie pop collective, Bears , will be doing [...]
Ik hou enorm van platenhoezen. Dat mag blijken uit de nieuwe blogrubriek die ik startte vorige maand. En het maakt dat ik al eens muziek ontdek van bands waarvan ik nooit eerder hoorde, maar waarvan de hoes me op één of andere wijze absoluut aantrok. Dat is zeker ook het geval met Bears , dat op 14 februari het album Greater Lakes uitbrengt en daar hoort een prachtige, naïeve hoes bij : Luister alvast naar dit nummer van het nieuwe album : Eleven [...]
2 Bears are a London based duo who formed in 2009. The duo are comprised of Joe Goddard (Hot Chip), and Raf Rundell. Their debut album 'Be Strong' was just released a week ago, and the hit single 'Work' has a pretty cool video that is worth checking out below. Their sound has been categorized as "Rave-Garage", Liquid-Bmore-House-Step" and "Pop-Hip-House" by critics.
After a week away, it was nice to be back in the studio. This week I played several folk-related tunes, a few garage-based ones, and a small handful of indie pop tracks. With the amount of indie-folk I've played of late, I'm thinking we're in store for another dreamy mix and maybe even a garage rock mix in the near future. Andi and I have been on a DIY kick of late and a recent project has been homemade laundry detergent. With the three ingredients displayed in the photo above, along [...]
A pesar de que no entiendo muy bien el hype que rodea a The 2 Bears (o sea sí está divertido, pero ¿qué más?), les está yendo de maravilla, todo mundo habla de ellos, y al parecer a nadie le desagrada (incluyéndome). Celebrando el lanzamiento de su álbum debut, el dúo ha publicado un mixtape que se puede descargar de manera gratuita. Acá se los dejamos:
Artist : Message To Bears Title : Folding Leaves Label : Dead Pilot Records Release Date : January 16th BUY IT Written by Tom Johnson I've really struggled to write this review. Which is in no way meant as a negative comment against either the artist or their work, but is perhaps reflective of the overall [...]
It's been a bit since we've posted on a band from our very own Buckeye State, but I've been meaning to get the word out about Cleveland duo Bears for a hot minute. "Eleven a.m." is the first single from the band's forthcoming album Greater Lakes, and it's the kind of low-key indie pop that [...]
Bear In Heaven was just another band with the word 'bear' in it a year ago and now they've pawed themselves into the limelight with their upcoming new album titled, I Love You, It's Cool . Sure, this album may be either the funniest title I've seen in some time or they're just that cool. Judging by their new song, "Reflection Of You", we're starting to believe the latter. Kudos, bear friends. Kudos. I Love You, It's Cool [...]

I tried to post this as close to eleven a.m. as possible. It's a perfect indie pop track that uplifts on this gloomy (the weather, I should mention) holiday (Martin Luther King Day, here in America). It's track 1 from the upcoming album, Greater Lakes, to be released on February 14, 2012 via Misra Records. Available on clear vinyl LP, CD and digitally. Check out Bears at www.bearspop.com . Eleven a.m. by Bears Tracks: 1. Eleven a.m. 2. You're Going 3. [...]
It finally happened. Winter arrived. Snow fell and we woke up this past Sunday with about three inches of the stuff. I'm glad it didn't arrive earlier, as Friday saw me at KSVR for a four hour stint of music. The first two hours flirted with folk music and the latter half was full-on garage rock, garage pop and psychedelic pop. Much of the 10 to midnight show came courtesy Finest Kiss , who posted some great 2011 lists. Taking [...]
Bears - Eleven A.M. Amerikanska popbandet Bears släpper sin nya skiva Greater Lakes den 14 februari, eller på alla hjärtansdag om man hellre vill namnge dagen. Det allra första spåret på skivan är just Eleven A.M. En poplåt som bjuder på en fin melodi med fina arrangemang, som skulle gå att kalla för glad eller åtminstone upplyftande, tillsammans med en text som inte är allt för deppig.
Bears are a delectable pop band out of Cleveland, Ohio that blend indie pop sounds with psychedelic instrumentation and the clash between sleepy and mopey vocals. If there's anything I like, it's rainy-day pop music, and that's precisely what this is. Greater Lakes is the band's new LP - their third at that - and it comes out on Misra Records on Valentine's Day 2012. Word is floating around that this is their best album yet, and with a few listens, it's easy to [...]

The 2 Bears are a collaboration between producer Raf Rundell and Hot Chip's Joe Goddard. The two initially crossed paths while DJing a London party hosted by the Greco-Roman Soundsystem collective. Later they made plans to try to replicate some of the Detroit Techno and Chicago House they had played in the club, with Goddard making beats and Rundell singing. Watch the music video for The 2 Bears' brand new single "Work" directed by Zaiba Jabbar. http://electrowow-music.blogsp ot.com

the shittiest song in the world can include handclaps, and with just that little addition said shittiest song seems a little less shitty. huge on the handclaps, i am. well, cleveland's and new addition to the misra roster, bears' "eleven am" has got them handclaps. interestingly enough, the more i listen to the song, the more i suspect they may not be handclaps, but something toying with my emotions. either way, the song is great, real handclaps or not. the album, greater lakes , which is due out on 2.14.12 was a kickstarter funded record [...]
