Grizzly Bear at MASS MoCA on June 16

Saturday, June 16, 8pm
Hunter Center at MASS MoCA
Tickets on sale beginning March 9, at 10am

NORTH ADAMS, MASSACHUSETTS — One of the most celebrated indie rock acts of the last two decades, Grizzly Bear joins a summer concert lineup at MASS MoCA that includes Ray LaMontagne with special guest Neko Case (June 29), Courtney Barnett (July 12), and The Decemberists (June 15). The band performs the Hunter Center, on Saturday, June 16, at 8pm. Grizzly Bear is touring in support of its first new album in five years, Painted Ruins. Rolling Stone praises the release: “Fully charged and ready to break new ground, this is the kind of post-hiatus comeback most bands’ fans only dream of.”

With humble beginnings as the home recording project of Boston-bred singer-songwriter Edward Droste, Grizzly Bear — Droste, multi-instrumentalist Daniel Rossen, multi-instrumentalist Christopher Bear, and vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer Chris Taylor — made waves in 2005 releasing Horn of Plenty. In the ensuing two decades the quartet’s prog-rock-meets-chamber-pop sound took the music world by storm and helped to define a new wave of psychedelic-leaning sound. Grizzly Bear’s following six albums have received widespread critical acclaim. Painted Ruins dropped last August, making 2017 year-end lists in Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and USA Today.

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA) rests on the ancestral homelands of the Muhheaconneok or Mohican people (People of the Waters That Are Never Still) and the Wabanaki peoples. Despite tremendous hardship in being forcibly relocated from these lands by Dutch, English, and US colonizers, today the Muhheaconneok or Mohican community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community The Wabanaki Confederacy, also known as The People of the Dawnland, include the Mi’kmaq, Maliseet, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, and Abenaki Nations, who are indigenous to the lands with the English placenames Maine, Vermont, northwestern Massachusetts, and parts of Canada, and continue to reside in these areas. We pay honor and respect to these ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all. More information can be found here.
