Grizzly Bear does make breathtaking music. Yellow House will forever be one of my favorite albums.

I wish Grizzly Bear was still together! 2 of the MOST beautiful and amazing songs are “Yet, Again” and “Ready, Able”… You are truly an amazing artist!

[@rolandviado]

grizzly bear's music always gives me chills (the good kind)

[@umbroog7342]

It gives me thrills

[@TheDaddyO44]

Droste and Rossen, Yorke and Greenwood, Lennon and McCartney, Rogers and Hammerstein.... All examples of when 1+1=3

[@MicahBuzanANIMATION]

Very likable band.

[@EtcEtcAndEtc]

well done sir, you've got it in you and it's got to come out.

[@TimothyJasonCarr]

Please keep it going. You are one of the best bands on the planet. Ever.

[@fhowland]

He is immensely talented. Without a doubt a musical genius. Grizzly Bear is the closest thing we have to a modern day Beach Boys or Beatles.

[@wisico640]

Ed!! Come back ❤

[@aftmostfools]

Within the first sentence My thoughts: ALRIGHT, YEAH NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE WHY HE'S SO GOOD!

[@lj.969]

They came to New Orleans for the first time a few days ago and I got to see them live. It was a beautiful experience.

[@georgiethumbs2438]

Ed is unbelievably brilliant and it ticks me off to no end how he is ignored by the media in favor of these corporate puppets. It's like ignoring Mozart in favor of Josey and the Pussycats.

[@honkyzilla]

Josey and the pussycats are awesome

[@victormora2590]

I love your music !!!!!!! Don't stop !!! Love your music!!!

[@connorlong2473]

these guys are stupidly talented. love them.

[@ri260]

Beautiful 🥰

[@impudelle]

God, you are so handsome.

[@LoudBreather]

Omg thanks for saying what I wanted to… 😅

[@turk-money]

Anyone know where the location at 1:30 is?

[@stxticnathan6627]

He is literally if a grizzly bear was a person, and that's a good thing

[@daveconnor6174]

What is it that he says at the very end? I can't make it out "It's very important that everyone's ......." 2:07

[@Gerckified]

Dave Connor synergize

[@daveconnor6174]

Eyy thx Kurt

[@hebneh]

Interesting how his nose wasn't exceptionally big when he was a kid, but now he looks so distinctive and completely different because of it.

[@doodletownpipers]

it's a joy of puberty only some of us get to experience :^)

[@vertyisprobablydead]

You're not even in your own band anymore so who cares Ed. You don't seem to value your band much do you Ed.

[@kp1531]

He's taking a break to have a life outside of music. He has given us so much, why are you being so selfish? Also...he'll be back. GB will be back. Mark my words.

[@carrymeohio]

​@@kp1531 Yeah but he's become a therapist hasn't he? He's pursuing that sort of a career now where he no longer needs to travel (which he found truly exhausting back in the day).
