Sunday. You're tired, hungover and broke - Adrian Childs' flirtatious relationship with Lee Dixon on Match of the Day 2 should be the most complex thing you face all evening. Alas, one fateful sabbath, you're begrudgingly hauled through the curiously baltic microclimate that seperates Dublins 4 and 8 at the whim of a sadistic promoter. Lo and behold, your arsey Sunday mood is at once forgotten, and the rest of your evening is spent floating to the chimes of a gifted Brooklyn quartet.
Thus went Sunday last. Grizzly Bear were beautiful; every bit as harmonious, sparse and rich as their two classic records suggest. The broody Colorado was turned into an expansive epic; Two Weeks sounded like one of the best pop songs of the decade, and While You Wait For The Others swept you along its journey from a folky crusade into a harmonious show-stealer. The silent devotion was something to behold. A magical evening.
