Φτάνω στην πάνω πλευρά της πλατείας Κάνιγγος τη στιγμή που το "Imposter in the Sky" εισβάλλει θεαματικά στο κεφάλι μου. και μου δείχνει έναν συννεφιασμένο ουρανό όπου παράξενα φώτα κινούνται πίσω απ'τα σύννεφα. Στην πλατεία βέβαια τίποτα τέτοιο δε συμβαίνει - είναι ένα συνηθισμένο Πεμπτιάτικο σούρουπο στην Κάνιγγος, με τον κόσμο να περνάει νωχελικά τη διάβαση της πάντα μισοάδειας τέτοια ώρα Ακαδημίας και μετά, λίγο πριν από τα κιόσκια με τα περιοδικά και τα λουλούδια, να βάζεις στοίχημα πόσα χέρια με διαφημιστικά φυλλάδια θ'απλωθούν επίμονα ή ικετευτικά προς το μέρος σου. Αυτή τη φορά όμως, υπό την επίρρεια του κομματιού, [...]
Here's what to watch on television this week in the world of music.
I debated whether or not I should post this because my posts are predominantly about Grizzly Bear and I don't post too often as is. But if not I, who else? "Ready, Able" played beautifully by the band accompanied by the ACME Quartet on Letterman.
Definitivamente la gente que se encarga de producir la sección musical del show de David Letterman deben disfrutar escuchar buena música, esta vez los invitados fueron los chicos de Grizzly Bear quienes hicieron una versión especial de la canción "Ready, Able" incluida en su disco mas reciente titulado Veckatimest , les dejo el video con la presentación de la banda.

Grizzly Bear - Ready, Able (Live on Lettermen 7/16) Don't get my wrong this is another great performance by Grizzly Bear but I may or may not be posting more Grizzly Bear for a boost in Tumblarity. For those who don't know what I'm talking about just ignore this.

Toronto - Music has slowed down severely lately. There are some new albums out, but nothing has made me want to write about them. Maybe the new Florence and the Machines album .. maybe. Other albums I have been listening to include the new Nouvelle Vague . The new Cass McCombs is suppose to be pretty good too (according to bitchfork). First off, check out this bear we met on our cottage trip this weekend Let me tell you, they might say black bears are [...]

>> Eight years! Eight long, tiring, Wilco and Sonic Youth -filled years for Jim O'Rourke without an album to call to his own. Thankfully, O'Rourke and Drag City are going to remedy the silence September 8th with the release of The Visitor which promises more Eureka and Insignificance pop goodness. >> Fans are very familiar with the foibles of Thom Yorke : living with ghosts, straining his face, and cutting his hair with vacuums. Now rumors are surfacing that Yorke is ready to mix [...]
Bad habits are hard to break. In our case, we keep posting our Sunday night feature on Monday mornings. Luckily the beginning of the work week haze is perfectly suited for a nice time sink. Grab a cup of coffee, avoid your boss (you have a "work related" tab open in your browser -right?) and sit down with this week's video picks. Ponytail - Celebrate the Body Electric (It Came From an Angel) We recently recieved a letter* from a reader asking if we could find a video that was guaranteed to give them a headache if [...]
Grizzly Bear , continuing their reign of late night talk shows, appeared on Letterman last week (after having their previous performance pushed back) with another Veckatimest beauty, "Ready, Able", backed by the ACME String Quartet . As expected the sound is remarkable and breathtaking, but anything less of Grizzly Bear at this point would be obscene. The band recently added a slew of new concert dates, including a visit to Philadelphia's Electric Factory October 7 with Baltimore's Beach House . Grizzly Bear (ft. ACME [...]

En su segunda actuación en el Late Night Show de David Letterman (ya dimos noticia de la primera), los Grizzly Bear han vuelto al plató de la CBS, para interpretar otro tema de su último y alabadísimo álbum, "Veckatimest" (WARP, '09). Esta vez, la oportunidad le ha llegado a "Ready,...
Here is the next installment in our series "Lessons From Late Night" where we attempt to school you in the way of good music, through live performances from late night television. This past week, "The Late Show with David Letterman" was really solid. It started off a little rocky with a Kelly Clarkson performing a track off of her new album, "Already Gone." It may be a just another mediocre break-up ballad from an American Idol winner, but this girl can really sing. But don't worry it gets better from here. On Tuesday David had Wilco performing [...]

In case you have still not given Veckatimest a chance and have not listened to the album, this is not a bad way to be introduced. Check out this stunning live rendition on Letterman's late night program of yet another standout track from the album. Grizzly Bear - Ready, Able (mp3) from Veckatimest
Late night performances tend to be lackluster and awkward. Not this one. Holy smokes. Here's Grizzly Bear on Letterman, playing "Ready, Able" from their fantastic album, Veckatimest . Enjoy. -Chris

Grizzly Bear avait déjà été l'auteur d'une mémorable performance chez Letterman en Décembre dernier. Les voilà de retour avec le meilleur extrait de 'Veckatimest' , le merveilleux Ready, Able , le groupe étant accompagné pour l'occasion d'une formation à cordes. Cette version est fantastique, et la voix de Ed Droste le chanteur, est incroyable. Retrouvez aussi Ready, Able Live @ The Interface , plus intime mais tout aussi excellent...
Seeing Grizzly Bear on Letterman last night reminded me of their incredible, nearly perfect performance here in Austin at The Parish last month. Seriously if you don't own Veckatimest , you're missing out on what just may end up being our album of the year! Don't forget Austin, they'll be back in town on October 3rd to play ACL .

Last night, Brooklyn's Grizzly Bear performed on Letterman. Joined by a string quartet, they played "Ready, Able." Sounded great! Pigeons and Planes
Grizzly Bear perform my favorite song off Veckatimest , "Ready,Able" with strings on Letterman. Grizzly Bear with Beach House Wed.30 Sept. First Ave. Minneapolis
