Grizzly Bear announced their first shows since 2019. The highly influential quartet will return to the stage this fall for a seven-show North American tour.
“Because Grizzly Bear never broke up, their first shows in six years are not a reunion,” a press release from the band explained. “They are a simultaneous point of arrival and departure, their next destination still unknown.”

Grizzly Bear — multi-instrumentalists Ed Droste and Daniel Rossen along with Chris Taylor and drummer Christopher Bear — last performed together at the 2019 Just Like Heaven festival. The quartet released their fifth and most recent album, Painted Ruins in 2017. Vinyl reissues of Painted Ruins, Yellow House (2006), Veckatimest (2009) and Shields (2012) are due on October 17.
The brief trek begins with a three-show residency at New York City’s Brooklyn Steel on October 13, 14 and 16. After a few weeks off, Grizzly Bear resumes the tour on November 8 at The Salt Shed in Chicago. The band then heads to California to wrap the run with shows in Los Angeles on November 12, San Francisco on November 18 and Oakland on November 19.
Tickets for all seven dates go on sale to the general public this Friday, May 30 at 10 a.m. local time.
