A few months ago, Brooklyn indie heroes Grizzly Bear announced plans to get back together and play some shows. It’s not a reunion, exactly, since Grizzly Bear never officially broke up. But they’ve been inactive for years, and frontman Ed Droste has largely left music behind to start a new career as a therapist. Grizzly Bear’s current run of shows is their first since they played the Just Like Heaven festival in 2019. In a few days, Beach House’s Victoria Legrand, an old friend of the band, will join them as an onstage guest for the rest of their headlining shows in the current run. That run started on Monday night, when Grizzly Bear kicked off a series of five hometown shows at Brooklyn Steel.
