Fabulist!

This video clip of Grizzly Bear performing their new song "While You Wait for the Others" on Conan O'Brien the other night has been making the rounds, and it's easy to see why. The tune seems to remind everyone of something different. For me, it's a crazy combination of The Jimi Hendrix Experience-meets-Roxy Music-meets-roots reggae. All of which I happen to love (don't judge me!). Not that I'm saying it's derivative--the song and the absolutely golden performance by the band both have a tingly vibe that's at the same time both comfortingly familiar and uniquely their own. The best things always do.
