Their stint with rhymin' Simon over and done with, the fellas of Grizzly Bear are prepping themselves for two more inspired pairings: their tour with Radiohead and a newly added date with the New Pornographers. In addition, the Grizz have woven quite a few new dates into their late summer plans, which kick off with an appearance at the Sled Island Music Festival in Calgary.

In other Grizzly Bear news, new tune "While You Wait for the Others", performed live on KCRW's "Morning Becomes Eclectic" recently made its way to the internet in proper MP3 form, and by golly, it's already over there on Forkcast. Oh, and 3/4ths of the Bear clan helped Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson craft his forthcoming debut LP.
