Saying Goodbye to GBG

Hi everyone,

On August 18, when Painted Ruins is released, this blog will become an archive and I will no longer be updating with new content. I started this blog in 2009 because of my love for Grizzly Bear. At the time, there were no websites sharing the content I was continually finding online. What started a small blog for a handful of personal online friends grew into such a wonderful community with followers as passionate as I was about the band.

Because of this blog, I’ve been able to connect and meet with so many wonderful people from around the world. I read all the messages that were sent to me via DM or email. This blog has also connected me on a personal level to the band (and their families), which in turn, has provided some of my most loved and cherished memories I will carry with me all my life. For as much love I put out for them, I always felt it reciprocated right back.

However, circumstances change, and life is different for me now as the sole person continuing to update this blog. I will always support these guys with my whole heart but sadly ,my schedule does not allow for me to keep up with the rapid pace of press and online content being released like I used to. However, for those still eager for new content: there is an active Grizzly Bear Subreddit, which is a great community for people who are excited about the new album and beyond.

Please be sure to purchase the new album and support Grizzly Bear on whatever format best suits you. I was lucky enough to hear it a few months ago and I can say it is absolutely stellar and my favorite record they’ve put out yet.

Thanks to everyone who still reads this silly blog.

xoxo,
Kerry
