Michael McDonald is cool??

Michael McDonald teamed up with Grizzly Bear for a B-side, performing the vocals for “While You Wait For the Others.” Not bad.

I like it a lot, but whenever I listen to it, I think of the scene from 40 Year Old Virgin:

Grizzly Bear – Two Weeks

Holy crap I am getting excited for the release of Grizzly Bear’s third LP, Veckatimest, out this Tuesday 5/26. Here’s a great track called “Two Weeks” performed on “Jools Holland”. Psychodelic and bubbly, sort of has a Beach Boys feel to it. If the rest of the album is as good this tune and “Cheerleader,” Veckatimestcould be one of my favorite albums of 2009.

Grizzly Bear – Cheerleader

My apologies. Not much of a video at all here. I should create a better one.

Jay-Z – ROC Boys (Grizzly Bear Remix)

How is it that Jay-Z can be remixed with just about anything and yield great results every time? I’ll leave this question open to any willing hip-hop critics.

It’s been done with The Beatles, Dave Matthews and apparently “The Knife” by Grizzly Bear. Found this remix in the free albums section over at stereogum.

Grizzly Bear – Knife

Jonny Greenwood’s favorite band lately, according to some joe-shmo’s youtube comment. That’s enough endorsement for me.
